The store's 2,000-square-meter airplane hangar can showcase 10 jets, while the newly opened Wuhan center in Hubei has a 1,000-sq-m hangar.

The 95 planes sold in Ningbo were priced between 4 million yuan ($614,000) and 120 million, Sun said.

"The majority of the aircraft sold are not for private use, which accounts for only 10 to 15 percent. Most of them are used in industry, agriculture, forest, building, medical aid, meteorological detection and flight training," Sun said.
