Some great pics...thanks.

Some great pics...thanks.
At your third and second last photo we can see two aircraft parked the other way nose in along the island and five at the bow - the last one blocking the runway. That means, a group of seven aircraft just land at the carrier.They could spot the take off birds along the island in the appropriate position, and then move the landing aircraft further back after landing. It would cause them to have enough delay in the landing pattern, but it would allow them to do both simultaneously.
In that situation they are not.At your third and second last photo we can see two aircraft parked the other way nose in along the island and five at the bow - the last one blocking the runway. That means, a group of seven aircraft just land at the carrier.
I do not belive, that simultaneously take offs are possible in such a situation.
Well, there are seven seen there...and that is a goodly amount.

That's eight at once.
I am still looking for something over eight. I would prefer something in the double digits...meaning 10 or more.
Keep looking...the first one who posts and authentic picture of 10 or more J-15s aboard Liaoning gets an official "SD Atta BOY!" Award!
Note. I say J-15s, not a combination of J-15s and helos. Otherwise that photo above would already fulfill the challenge.
LOL
Yes, they are using the Liaoning to gradually get a goodly number of pilots certified for carrier operations and that is a very good thing for them.
