On March 26, the large aircraft sector generally opened higher, with related companies such as China Super Holdings and SaiXiang Technology rising accordingly. Starting from March 29, the domestically produced large aircraft C919 will officially commence flights on important routes, marking a further development of China's aerospace industry. Additionally, the government work report emphasizes that the aerospace industry is a "new pillar industry," demonstrating the country's attention and support for the aerospace sector.

Abstract generation in progress

On March 26, the large-aircraft sector opened higher, with Sintra Holdings (002471.SZ), Tianbao Construction (000965.SZ), Zai Sheng Technology (603601.SH) and SaiXiang Technology (002337.SZ), Sichuan Chuang Electronics (600990.SH), Parker New Materials (605123.SH), Aerospace HuanYu (688523.SH), and West Test (301306.SZ) also moving up in tandem.

On the news front, starting March 29 this year, airports will officially enter the 2026 summer flight season. At that time, China’s homegrown large aircraft, the C919, will make a major debut, operating on the Beijing Capital–Harbin Tianping route flown by Air China, with two daily round-trip flights. It is understood that the Air China C919 aircraft type deployed for operations at Harbin Airport adopts a two-cabin layout of 8 business cabins plus 148 economy cabins, for a total of 156 seats. The cabin design fully balances comfort and convenience, and can meet the travel needs of different passengers.

Orient Securities said that the newly added “aviation” wording in the 2026 Work Report upgrades the sector’s positioning to “emerging pillar industry,” reflecting the government’s greater-than-expected emphasis on the aviation industry and its importance. Compared with 2025, this year’s government work report newly mentioned aviation, and the wording has changed from “emerging industry” to “emerging pillar industry.” The former focuses more on encouraging innovation and cultivating market entities, and is in an incubation phase of “from 0 to 1.” Meanwhile, the phrase “pillar” suggests that the aviation industry has, at least initially, the ability to support the overall national economic picture, and it is no longer merely a “bonus” new track. Instead, it is expected to become a cornerstone for national security and economic development. This signals that the policy direction has shifted from “supporting development” to “powerful driving” and “scale expansion.” We believe the degree of emphasis the country places on the large-aircraft industry and the industry’s importance are beyond expectations.
