China Northern's MD-82 taking off in Beijing.
China Northern Airliners (simplified Chinese: 中国北方航空; pinyin: Zhōngguó Běifāng Hángkōng), was an airline based in Taoxian International Airport, Shenyang, Liaoning Province, China. Besides Shenyang, it also had three hubs at Harbin, Changchun and Sanya.
It was one of the six major airline corporations that were formed as the result of the breaking up of CAAC's airline operations. It initially operated a fleet of Airbus A300, McDonnell-Douglas MD-80, MD-90 and later Airbus A321 aircraft. It operated mostly to domestic destinations and also to South Korea and Japan.
