On October 26, China Eastern Wuhan Branch Company (formerly Wuhan Airlines) donated a retired Yun-7 100 (known as Y7-100 in short) type aircraft to the China Civil Aviation Museum. According to airline officials, the aircraft is 16-year-old, and was delivered to Wuhan Airlines in September 1990.

Until now, China Civil Aviation Museum has received aircraft donations from various airlines and organisations. In particular, China Civil Aviation Museum has received the first Airbus plane (Type: A310) imported by China in 1985, which was donated by Airbus China after 21 years of service.
