Ever dreamed of soaring like a superhero? 🦸♂️ This National Day holiday in the Chinese mainland, some thrill-seekers in Shanghai skipped the tourist crowds and headed straight for the drone flight deck.
Thanks to the Chinese mainland’s new focus on a “low-altitude economy,” demand for drone pilots is skyrocketing. Imagine unlocking the next level in a video game—except your joystick is a real drone controller, and the sky is the battlefield!
Industry data shows:
- 1.9 million registered drones in the Chinese mainland
- Only 225,000 licensed drone operators
This gap spells opportunity 🎯. Non-commercial drone licenses are more in demand than ever as businesses, content creators, and even delivery services look for certified pilots to take projects airborne.
Whether you’re a news junkie, aspiring entrepreneur, or future engineer, drone skills are shaping up to be the hottest ticket in town. So, next holiday, why not trade the beach for flight school?
