Beijing Daxing International Airport Age-Defying Cai Guoqing MAR/APR 2019 SKY TIMES 016 The Flavor in the Air Successful First Test Flight at Age-Defying Beijing Daxing Cai Guoqing International Airport Editor’s Letter s a world-renowned project, Beijing Daxing International Airport is set to open this fall. At the beginning of 2019, it embraced its first test flight, with an inspection plane Alanding smoothly on the West One Runway at 10:10 a.m. on January 22nd. This means the construction of Daxing Airport will now enter the acceptance and handover stage. Some 34 days later, Beijing Daxing International Airport completed flight checks when a plane landed safely at 10:20 a.m. on February 24th, 19 days ahead of schedule. Four runways, seven instrument landing systems, seven lighting systems, one navigation system and a flight range finder, as well as a set of flight procedures, went through thorough checks. The completion of the tests means the airport is ready for operation. The new airport is expected to handle 45 million passengers annually by 2021 and 72 million by 2025. In this March & April issue of Sky Times, we bring you to Beijing Daxing International Airport to witness the grand process of flight checks. (page 48) Photo by Air France In our minds, we always have an ambivalent attitude towards in- flight catering. Almost everyone who has traveled by plane has had to make the same difficult choice: “Beef Noodles or Chicken Rice?” After having had to select one of these two equally unpalatable options, it might be hard to muster the courage to call yourself a foodie ever again. However, what is even more surprising is that passengers could also enjoy fancy meals cooked by chefs directly on the plane. Could it be true? In fact, this used to happen over 80 years ago. Nowadays, when you choose to take international flights to travel around the world, you can enjoy the local food even before you land. Traditional cuisines and international flavors can both be served on board. Do you want to know how flight meals are made? What is the history behind in-flight catering? What features and flavors do different airlines offer? Let’s begin with an appetizer and indulge in the in-flight cuisine of airlines from all around the world.

MAIR Associate Editors PAULA ROBERTS MARK SWOFFORD ISSN 2157-9679 (print) 2157-9687 (online) SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series dedicated to making available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor-in-chief actively encourages younger, not yet well established scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including romanized modern standard Mandarin and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino-Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. Submissions are regularly sent out for peer review, and extensive editorial suggestions for revision may be offered. Sino-Platonic Papers emphasizes substance over form.

This paper focuses on the period of the Great Leap Famine in China between 1958 to and 1962. Based on newly - collected oral interviews and arc hivvhi al evidence, it gives voices to ordinary villagers from different parts of China −― from various counties in one of China’s biggest and most populated Sichuan province in the southwest, to Shandong in the east and Hunan in central China and examines their experiences and their survival stra tgegies in times of hunger, illness, and death. It shows that an integral part of everyday famine culture, particularly in rural China , which was worst hit, concerns the kitchen knowledge and practice of healing and nutrition. Many traditional recipes that were used in previous times were rediscovered and used as everyday hunger - coping techniques. Some are date ed back to the Ming dynasty −― a few were recorded in Materia Medica for Famine Relief (Qiuhuang bencao 救荒本 Formatted: Font: Italic, No underline 草, c. a. 1406).Using the methodology of oral history set against an historical Formatted: No underline background of traditional materia medica, this paper elicits how ordinary people in Formatted: Font: Italic rural China devised complex and plural strategies to cope with fundamental biological crises.
