Many of airports is not military air base, for example there are only 3 air bases in Yunnan: Luliang, Mengzi and Yunnanyi. But there are 11 air bases of Yunnan in the list, even include 2 airports that have abandoned for a long time (Zhanyi and Yuanmou). And it is worthy to talk that, there were 2 airports in Xiangyun County during WW2, Yunnanyi airport had abandoned in 1950s, it is agricultural field now. The airport that we can see on google map in Xiangyun County was called Beitun (北屯机场) at that time. This airport was retained by PLA and used in military service. It was abandoned in 1985, but in 2018 google map satellite imagery we can see some fighter aircraft park on the apron. It looked seems put into use again. Local government published an announce about airport clearance zone, airport name in the file is called "Yunnanyi Airport"[1].So do not link the old Xiangyun Airport article to nowadays "Yunnanyi Airport".--Xiliu※heshui · criticize me 21:21, 12 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
