Pledges in Action: A Y-20 captain's commitment

"If one day I am needed on the front line, I will be the first aircraft there."

For People's Liberation Army Air Force Y-20 captain Zhang Peng, those aren't just words, they're a promise he lives by.

One of the first pilots selected to transition to China's largest domestically developed strategic transport aircraft, Zhang has spent nearly a decade flying missions ranging from emergency relief and humanitarian assistance to long-range overseas deployments.

In 2025, he helped deliver Chinese rescue teams and emergency supplies to earthquake-hit Myanmar.

Today, he has taken on another important mission – preparing the next generation.

As a flight instructor, Zhang is passing on not only his flying skills, but also the discipline, responsibility and sense of duty that define a military pilot.
