[People's Finance Commentary: Rational Layout and Scientific Guidance Needed for Low-Altitude Economy] In recent years, the low-altitude economy has rapidly taken root in various scenarios such as urban delivery, emergency rescue, inspection and patrol, manned transportation, and sightseeing tourism, opening up new consumer markets and gaining popularity across regions. However, there is still a prominent issue of having more government projects than commercial ones, as well as a heavy reliance on government subsidies and insufficient profitability. While the nascent stage of industry development undoubtedly requires more support and tolerance, it also necessitates rational layout and scientific guidance. Currently, China's low-altitude economy is still in its infancy, with broad market prospects and boundless potential for exploration. According to a report by an institution, the expansion of low-altitude economy service models has promoted the development of air transportation, and flight experiences have spurred consumption transformation. The potential for economic growth driven by various economic activities arising from this is expected to exceed 1 trillion yuan.
