Sino Jet has taken delivery of its first
Dassault Falcon 7X business jet.
The aircraft was delivered to Sino Jet from

low-carbon emission initiatives and the offsets of China Certified
Emission Reductions (CCER).
Sino Jet's Falcon 7X business jet
took off from Bordeaux and flew to Shanghai via Dubai, a total flight distance of 14,114 kilometers.

According to Carbonstop, the direct and indirect
greenhouse gas emissions during the flight totaled 59.01 tons of CO2e,
after adopting low-carbon emission reduction measures. Combined
with the offsets by China Certified Emission Reductions (CCER)
credits, the flight became the first 'carbon neutral' flight in
China's business aviation history.
"With the rapid development of
human society, the problem of global warming is affecting people's
survival and safety. Sino Jet has the obligation to lead the
industry to be innovative in sustainable development and to
continuously promote the development of the industry in a way that
is harmonic with the nature," said a Sino Jet spokesperson.
In the past few years, Sino Jet has
adopted many measures to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions, including the launch of energy conservation and
emission reduction initiatives, progressing to a paperless office,
and using electronic flight packages
(EFBs).
The company is also one of the first in the industry to develop an
effective information management system that covers the entire
life cycle of business jets, and plans to launch 'carbon neutral'
flight services, bringing a 'green flight' option to customers.
The Falcon 7X business jet delivered to Sino Jet
can carry up to 12 passengers and has a flying range of 11,019
kilometers.
Founded in 2011, Sino Jet is headquartered in
Beijing and Hong Kong. The company manages and operates
approximately 50 business jets.
