Here again an image from the Type 003 carrier ... however I have no idea on how recent it is!

It's actually pretty interesting to see that the aerial bridge only have windows on its port side, not starboard side. Want to know what's the reason behind this. A speculation is that the starboard side is for backend device of the radar.

More likely is that the island is simply not yet complete, and that further openings for windows will be cut out as the ship progresses in construction and fitting out.

Unfortunately I can't. The source deleted the image shortly after it was posted.
Not even the Weibo-name which is written on that image? I know most often such images are deleted after quite a very short time, but I would like to remember these accounts to look from time to time and since I cannot write in Chinese characters it is very difficult to find such sites at Weibo.

Anyway thanks.

I will private message you since I don't want to affect this user.
