ZAM BIA＇S third largest city Ndola, headquarters of the country＇s famed copper-mining region known as the Copperbelt, has long wished for a modern air- port. Now the wish is to materialize with a $500-mil- lion facility on the drawing board. The project is being developed by the Aviation Industry Corp. of China （AVIC）, a company involved in the production of military aircraft and information and communications technology products as well as construction of commercial airports. The artistic impressions of the airport developed by AVIC include a terminal, aircraft and other vehicle parking spaces, and a hotel. At the time of writing this, the Zambian Government was looking for over $500 million so that construction could begin on the 2,000-hectare site in a forest reserve west of the city.
