Mongolian teenagers visit Boeing airplane

A Boeing airplane landed in Baita International Airport on July 18, and the Air China Inner Mongolia Company invited 14 Mongolian ethnic teenagers from Sonid Right Banner to experience the brand-new airplane.

It’s the second time for the company to purchase the Boeing airplanes from the United States since 2014. As new airplanes arrive, the airport planned to open the Hohhot-Yinchuan-Haikou route on July 20.

The event was organized to give a chance to children from impoverished areas to experience aviation knowledge and technologies.
