yes. that's second flight after March, 2023 ..

CJ-1000A also successfully passed long 150 hours ''lubricating oil interruption test'' ..

Second flight or second photographed flight? Because I'd be having a hard time believing that no CJ-1000A test flights took place between March 2023 and December 2024 (1 year plus)...

good question..

this could be second photographed flight.. at the beginning of this year one important task has been performed. it could be flight or some really important test..

but it shows CJ-1000A certification process has accelerate.

one more thing, in 2021 airshow AECC released CJ-1000A promotional video. in which they mentioned, this engine could enter in mass production in five years time.
