en.Wedoany.com Reported - Air China's C909 regional jet recently completed its maiden flight on the "Hohhot-Arxan-Ulanhot" route at Arxan Airport. This marks the first time the C909 aircraft has operated on this route and the first Air China-operated route since Arxan Airport opened. The Arxan Supply Station of China Aviation Oil Inner Mongolia Branch provided full refueling support for this flight, achieving high standards with zero errors.
On the day of the maiden flight, the airport held a water cannon salute ceremony. The supply station made advance preparations, coordinating with the airport and Air China crew regarding the C909's refueling parameters, equipment compatibility, and operational procedures, and developed a specialized support plan. The station organized pre-shift training for all personnel, covering inspections of oil tanks, pump rooms, refueling connectors, and metering equipment, as well as hazard checks for oil quality, static grounding, and fuel volume verification.

The Arxan Supply Station leveraged the exemplary role of Party members and cadres, with the person in charge overseeing operations throughout the shift. Two refueling trucks—one primary and one backup—were deployed on site, the refueling process was optimized, and the "three arrivals, four confirmations" safety protocol was strictly implemented. Dedicated personnel were on duty throughout the flight's arrival and departure, precisely controlling operational timing, mitigating adverse weather interference, and balancing routine daily flights with the special support needs of the maiden flight.

China Aviation Oil's Arxan Supply Station will continue to focus on its core function of airport fuel supply, promoting standardized, normalized, and refined management to enhance the level of routine refueling support for multiple aircraft types.
