I think it's my OCD kicking in, but I get so triggered whenever I see this flap at the back edge of the canopy. Why is it not flush with the body !?

Because you can never fully flush a joint so long as it is a joint, there is always gap. Why plain physics so difficult to grasp?

You either have the under side fully flushed with the upper side standing on top of it with a thin gap, like what you show in J-20.

Which also exists in F-35's front side of canopy.

Or you have the under side sunk with the upper side sits in with a thin gap like F-35 here.

I think you and many people who are obsessed with the build quality of J-20 have set the conclusion first (US is superior in everything), then you look for evidence to prove your conclusion from every detail of J-20 but ignoring the same details on F-35 and F-22. In doing so, you always succeed in convincing yourself and will never get away your OCD.

Comparing imaginary perfect with reality never goes well for reality ;)

and the award for best camera man goes to... clearest j20 in action video you could ever find, you can even spot the canard and vertical stabilizer doing minute correction all the time to keep the jet stable at 1.50++ min, the flight control system of j20 is insane.

Some of the onscreen comments are hilarious. But they ruined the video.

I actually *really* dislike videos that manipulate frame rates because it impairs good data collection.

I think this does not exist at all in his comment. So much insecurity. Some people are so triggered by Jai Hinds on Twitter that this reaction seeps into everything lmao
