Just heard the news. At least he has witnessed the landing and take-off. May him RIP.

I agree Wolfie, I just hope there is someone to carry on his legacy at Shenyang and to get the J-31 project up and running, and at 51 he may still have young children, hopefully Shenyang will continue to improve their aircraft and maintain the obviously high standards that the J-15s have been held to.

I think in all likelihood, it was seeing the landings that killed him.

He was the chairman of SAC, not an engineer or project leader, for him to be present would support my earlier belief that they feel fairly confident about their capabilities and that this entire exercise was more of a presentation rather than purely for training. And I would be amazed if he was the only VIP onboard that day.

I think there was a good chance that some very senior PLAN and Chinese government figures were also onboard the Liaoning that day for the demonstration, and it was more for their benefit rather than the CCTV crew that the display was made. Hell, the CCTV crew may well have been covering the VIP's visit as well, guess that's something we might want to look out for.

He was likely to have been overworked leading up to the landings, and I can only imagine the kind of pressure, stress he would have been feeling leading up to the landings, then the sense of relief and euphoria after the landings went perfectly was evidently just too much for his heart.
