Can anyone summarize the dates & duration of the individual flights ??
As far as I know
1. 11. January - ?? h ? min
2. 17. April - ?? h ? min
3. 5. May - 3:30 to 4:24 PM (55 minutes) - first flight with gears up
4. 5. May - 5:50 to 6:47 PM (57 minutes)
5. 12. May - ?? h ? min
MAybe we can add this here as a regular flight-log !
I think after the 10th flight, we can expect high flight manuveour?
Lol... J-20 with laser weapons?
I'm not sure, but if they did it would be at an altitude so that ground based photographers won't be able to get good snaps.
I imagine when they start pushing the plane to its limits will be a while yet and maybe not at the Chengdu plant.

Anyway we're sure getting our money's worth this year. More J-20 flights than we could've hoped for, J-15 and J-10B sightings, emergence of the "Y-7" AEW&C (even possibly photos of its flight recently), Z-10, Varyag looking closer to be finished along with continued shipbuilding acceleration and J-11B/BS production with many more on the way... And we're not even at the half way point of the year yet.

Thanks a lot of the patient.
I think is the browser (with pulg-in) problem, I uses IE or Maxthon(which is IE core), it never have this "right click" and shows "view image" thing, it have "show image URL" but give the wrong one.
Nevertheless, I can do it upload one pic a time.
An early concept for the "J-XX" is a twin enging J-10 stealth version - while the artist is not a military expert, he believes "more payload, the better".
Edit:
On further thought, regarding the pic I post. - I can understood the J-XX's wing plane's maneuver;
But I can not understan the F-15's wingman's maneuver. In combat, the wingman stick behind like that? Even under fire? The F-15 leader has been engaged, shouldn't the wingman stay behind and engage the enemy attacker's ass, and thus cover the leader?
I know it is a concept art, but in real combat, CAN F-15 TEAM BEING AMBUSHED LIKE THAT? (when wingman do not have a good angle at the attacker)

Can't help with browser issues. Firefox works fine for me. I like firefox because it seems to be more stable and faster than internet explorer, though I've never tried google crome.
It's just a CG I guess, the guy who made it is not a military expert.
I've also seen the pic before, some said it was meant to represent navalized two engine J-10 variant (external loads).

The J-20 colour scheme in this CG looks way better than those I've seen being proposed a while back somewhere.

I'm using I.E. and are still experiencing the problem of results number intermixing with and blocking the page title. Anyone else have the same problem?

Re: First close-up picture of J-20 Mighty Dragon opened cockpit
May I ask:
Is it a MUST for all warplanes to have the parachute?

Yup, sort of a dark navy blue colour scheme... It goes well with the red & yellow emblem of the PLAAF logo.
Is colour scheme an important aspect in designing a stealth plane?
