Abstract: Abstract Airlines spend enormous amount of effort and time developing flight schedules for each of their fleets. For General Aviation Flight, in China nowadays the low-altitude flight is not permitted and there is no service system to serve the general aviation flight. Due to the operations of airlines, the schedules always get cancelled or are caused delays because of some policy or environmental problems. In this paper firstly we create a 3-level General Aviation Flight Service System due to Chinese airline service condition, according to which we organize the process of flight schedule from applying for the flight plan to the end of the whole flight. Then we discuss the advantages of the new general aviation service system. Finally we simulate the whole service operation process. As a test case, we use ARENA simulation package to model the operations in the flight plan approval process. The service approach was found to be very effective in reducing the delay costs and maximize the profit.
