International stunt flying teams are performing at an airshow in northwestern China's Weinan, showing some of the most challenging maneuvers the world knows, with stunning precision, and beauty.

The airshows are part of this year's China International General Aviation Convention (CIGAC). The 67-year-old aviation legend Jurgis Kairys dazzled at Friday's airshow with his signature moves. In one of them, he drew his first initial "J" in midair using his beloved aircraft, the "Juka."

"This is really a tough maneuver. The plane rotates almost two turns per second and goes to the ground with full power," said Kairys of the Lithuanian "Air Bandits," adding, "I need to be really correct and do my job on time to control the situation."

The Lithuanian aerobat has come to perform at the CIGAC for the fourth time. Kairys says he looks forward to seeing what China has in store this year.

"China has already done something for (general) aviation. The world is always moving forward with new technology, new possibility, new planes and new air dynamics. In this exhibition, I think I can see that," said Kairys.

Pilots who have flown multiple times to China over the past few years may share his thought.

Jez Hopkinson of the Yakovlevs Display Team first performed in the country 11 years ago.

"It's our first time at the Xi'an exhibition. But we've flown in China for nine or ten times now, all over the country. Each time is very different but we love coming back here. It's fantastic and it's an opportunity."

And there have been big changes in the industry as well. The British pilot says China has laid down a foundation for the industry to boom.

"It (general aviation) is in its infancy here in China, but we've seen it grow and grow and grow over the last ten years. And it's nice to see China put it on the world stage now in general aviation, like building your own aircraft," said Hopkinson.

Air shows at this year's CIGAC will last until Sunday. Meanwhile, over 400 companies from home and abroad have gathered in Xi'an to promote their best products to the Chinese market.
