As I mentioned before, the message I received was on 22nd December 2011.
CAAC do make allowances and take each application on a case by case basis but in general, it seems these days they are less likely to approve.
Keep us posted on if you get approval.
BTW - someone mentioned not overflying North Korea. Any reasons ??

Hey V1,
Have done quite a number of ferries similar to the one you're about to embark on....from B200's, DHC-8's and a couple of ATR's over a 15 year period. Last one was 6 weeks ago, and have never had a problem with Chinese clearances.
Remember to keep your request polite and non demanding, the chinese will go out of their way to help you out. Demand entry, and they'll tell you to go jump, or ignore you....Make sure you oversee the application and ensure all the details are included in the format listed in their AIP. They'll remember you if there's a next time..!!!
Another thing, and with all due respect to other posters here, don't believe the naysayers here, most of it is BS...many have successfully ferried acft through that region before you.

For UHMA you may want to check immigration/customs requirements. If I recall correctly this airport is quite hard to use because of some special immigration/customs procedures.

Hello!
Nice trip, but I'd like to add some comments.
I think it's really hard to get North Korea overflight permission as well as South Korea.
Which fuel Your aircraft flies? If avgas, I'm not sure mentioned airport have it.
I can link information from AIP, if You need.

Hello URRVCTR:
The aircraft uses jet fuel (TS-1 or similar), so I am OK there.
Thank you for your kind offer of information from the AIP - however, I already have the Russian AIP (all 4,000+ pages of it!).
I am quite looking forward to this trip and hope to get going on it soon. Just waiting for all the crew visas to arrive.

Hello Everyone:
I became involved in a discussion about this flight that was taking place on a Canadian aviation discussion forum (click here to go to it), and I have posted an account of my flight, hotel details, how it went, and all the information I think would be useful to others who might make such a trip in the future at that site.
Thanks to all of you (especially Galaxy Flyer) for your invaluable advice. It turned out to be a very pleasant and trouble-free trip.

V1..Oops,
Very happy to have been able to help with the suggestion on routing. Your postings on AvCanada were most helpful and interesting.
