Yeppp ... our old friend '2002' ! ... but where is '2011' ???

 

[Deino]

Reportedly at least a bit more of the Grey Dragon '2001' ....

And if it is indeed '2001' then it has the news radome now too.

Somehow it looks smaller to me, like J-31 size.

Funny what a little change in camera angle can do. The J-20 has always benefited from the three-quarter view.

I'm still impressed with the fit and finish even after all this time.

PS: received this from "stonebee" via CDF !

Engine start up test has been done (observed), low speed taxiing test is anticipated very soon and will pass through the area where the pictures were taken. The poster will be waiting to take real pictures when that happens. (dated Jan 15)

... that at least sounds promissing.

From what I heard, 2011 is not going to make maiden flight before Chinese new years. That seems to make sense here since we only got 2 more weeks before then. So you are probably looking at late February before this all starts up again.
