Photos that potentially reveal sensitive info gets you picked up like that guy who flew the drone up close.

Painting the flight deck shouldn't require going back to dry dock, so I'm curious what other activities they need to do before the first sea trial. Did Liaoning and Shandong also return to dry dock after launch but before maiden sea trial?

Sure, paint flight deck is easy, but for the underwater line parts, need dry dock.

Shanghai Pudong International airport connects flights from many foreign countries from all continents as well as domestic flights. There is no way they can stop people taking photographs from the air, especially passengers on foreign airlines planes. The warnings are mainly aimed at Chinese nationals taking photos using drones or boats on the Yangtze River.

Okay, now that everyone's had a chance to respond to the question, and the user has hopefully had a chance to reflect, I've deleted the relevant posts.

I will reiterate to people, this forum isn't a site for people to ask random questions, and if questions are asked they should be done so with some specificity and without grievance or personal animosity from whatever past experience they might have had.

I also advise to do some background reading around the topic first before asking.

We aren't askjeeves.
