🛫 Harbin Records 148 Business Aircraft Movements; Shenyang Comparison Requires a Code Correction
A comparison of business aviation resources in Harbin and Shenyang must start with the correct airport code: Shenyang Taoxian Airport’s code is ZYTX, and ZYYY, used in the previous query, does not represent Shenyang Taoxian. Avi-Go data show that from August 16 to September 28, 2026, Harbin Airport (ZYHB) recorded 76 business aircraft departures and 72 arrivals, totaling 148 movements. A query for ZYYY over the same period returned zero departures and zero arrivals. These figures show measured activity at Harbin Airport and the query result for ZYYY, not a like-for-like comparison of demand at the Harbin and Shenyang airports.
Impact: For organizations arranging business aircraft ground services in Harbin and Shenyang, Harbin’s 148 movements can help establish the level of service activity at that airport during this period. The zero records for ZYYY should not be used to calculate the workload at Shenyang Taoxian. Using these figures to compare resource allocation between the two locations would change which airports are being compared, leaving ground-handling staffing and equipment plans without data for the corresponding airport.
Recommendation: Correct the code for Shenyang Taoxian Airport to ZYTX and query its business aircraft movements again for the same period, August 16 to September 28, 2026, counting each departure and each arrival as one movement. Then place that result alongside Harbin ZYHB’s 148 movements. Resource plans for the two locations can be developed separately, based on measured movement demand at each airport, once this like-for-like comparison is complete.
