The
Chinese team comprised of Tan Yebin, Liu Weiguo and Duan Zhiyong.
With 2 flyers, Tan Yebin and Li Weiguo, making it to the Semi-Finals,
China clinched 3rd overall in
team placings. Li Weiguo clinched 12th place only on the 4th
day, displacing Singapore's Stanley Chan and Thailand's Chaiphat
Tubthong of that last Semi-Final berth. Despite flying an old
aircraft(Sliver Dragon), Tan Yebin showed that the pilot is
still the most important, by finishing 9th after the Preliminaries
and 11th overall.
A
low point was their failure to contest in the Semi-Finals, apparently
due to no practice with the F-01 schedule.
