Panoramic views of the dense 'Mountain City' and the Jialing River confluence immediately after takeoff from CKG.

A glimpse of the high-altitude, mist-covered peaks to the north of the flight path in Hubei province.
Wuhan Cityscape
The massive industrial and residential sprawl of Wuhan, often visible with its numerous iconic Yangtze River bridges.
Yangtze Meanders
Exceptional views of the river's northern banks as it winds through the Hubei plains toward the east.
