History




A China Xinjiang Airlines Ilyushin Il-86 at Beijing Capital Airport in 1999.


The airline was established as a detachment of the CAAC Xinjiang Regional Authority;[4] it started operations on 1 January 1985 (1985-01-01).[5]


In late 1993 the airline took ownership of the first of five 72-seater ATR 72s that had been ordered in May the same year. This event was a milestone for China Xinjiang Airlines as it became the first Chinese airline in taking delivery and operating ATR aircraft.[6] At April 1995,[update] Xinjiang Airlines was evenly owned by CAAC and the Xinjiang Province and it had a fleet of two Antonov An-24s, two DHC-6 Twin Otters, one Ilyushin Il-86, eight SAP Y-8s and six Tupolev Tu-154Ms.[7][nb 1] Five years later,[update] the president position was held by Zhang Ruifu, who employed 4,597.[4] At this time, Almaty, Beijing, Changsha, Changzhou, Chengdu, Chongqing, Dalian, Fuzhou, Guangzhou, Guilin, Haikou, Hangzhou, Harbin, Hong Kong, Islamabad, Jinan, Karamay, Korla, Kunming, Lanzhou, Moscow, Novosibirsk, Qingdao, Shanghai, Shenyang, Shenzen, Tashkent, Tianjin, Wuhan, Xian, Xiamen, Xining, Yantai and Zhengzhou comprised the scheduled destination network.[8] In 2001, Boeing 737-400s were deployed on a new route linking Urumqi with Hong Kong.[9]


China Southern Airlines (CZ) integrated both China Northern Airlines and China Xinjiang Airlines into its operations; the takeover had been approved by the Chinese authorities in October 2002.[10] China Xinjiang Airlines IATA's code ″XO″ became replaced with the CZ one for domestic operations in early 2003.[10][11] By late March 2003[update], the replacement of the XO code was extended to all the operations. At this time, Xinjiang Airlines operated internationally from Urumqi to Alma Ata, Bishkek, Islamabad, Moscow, Novosibirsk, Tashkent and Yekaterinburg.[12]

Gabbro

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP A coarse-grained mafic intrusive rock Gabbro Photomicrograph of a thin section of gabbro Gabbro ( / ˈ ɡ æ b r oʊ / ) is a phaneritic (coarse-grained), mafic intrusive igneous rock formed from the slow cooling of magnesium-rich and iron-rich magma into a holocrystalline mass deep beneath the Earth's surface. Slow-cooling, coarse-grained gabbro is chemically equivalent to rapid-cooling, fine-grained basalt. Much of the Earth's oceanic crust is made of gabbro, formed at mid-ocean ridges. Gabbro is also found as plutons associated with continental volcanism. Due to its variant nature, the term "gabbro" may be applied loosely to a wide range of intrusive rocks, many of which are merely "gabbroic".
