Hey, what's up ??? No news today, no J-20 '2013', no J-31 '31003', no Y-20 '20004' ... not even a parade or flight display to celebrate the 65. anniversary ??
I'm disappointed, very much disappointed ....

Well, we've got all of October to get ready for November, I guess.

I think they only do parade once every 10 years...
But I simply do not want to wait any longer ! I had a very hard day at school today and I was eagerly hoping - YES, in fact even expecting - for something that would help me to relax. 
Sadly ... once again some red wine.

Just found a larger version and even if interesting, it seems like a cut & paste job done by a fan.
However any info on that strange supersonic-passenger plane below ??

When will it be ready for FAA certification?

probably within two years after it receives the Chinese certification at the end of this year. The agreement that FAA would recognize the Chinese certification process is still in effect, so unless the US reneges on the deal. The Chinese certification agency is supposedly even tough than FAA according aviationweek. it is going to happen. But ARJ21 doesn't need FAA certification for now to start full production as there are already hundreds of domestic backorders to be filled.

Everything in that bottom line is conjecture. The opener being a heavy lifting helicopter, followed by a small class business jet. A 6 engine Y8 bomber. The next in the row is a TU160 Blackjack bomber in PLA livery the tail nose and shape are those of the blackjack. Followed by two AWACS jets the second of them and the last plane shown being based on the same aircraft.
