Looks like there is a problem with tail?

Oh yeah?Ever seen anyone trying to fix an ultra expensive, unltra complicated, high tech piece by piling 7 guys on top of it... outdoors?

Looks to me more like that they were just playing chess up there during lunch break...

I wonder if anyone seen something similar for the T-50 or F-22. :D

Top81 web says that China has just arrested an CIA operative near the J-20 fly trial site.

No offence, but...errr...has anyone seen Popeyes lately? :p

I always thought there are a lot of "no step" areas on the aircraft, look at those guys without shoe covers which means no RCS absorbing paint that's for sure.

pssst, they are shooting a music video for a future top CPP endorsed Chinese boy band

i think no step areas are usually on flaps/control surfaces to avoid getting people hurt

also agree there is no LO paint coat on 2001, as it is a pure aerodynamics tester prototype

Come on, Popeye is like the kind of guy sitting back at Langley and oversees someone else who does the ground work, he wouldn't lower himself to do fieldwork personally. :p

Jokes aside, if it was a CIA operative that got caught, it would almost certainly be a Chinese national working as a CIA 'asset', the kind of disposable guys and girls who don't get a star when they are killed in action. CIA stars are only awarded to American nationals, how else do you guys think there are so few stars on the wall at Langley?

Prolly the guy or girl who took the pix of the panel removal, top of the wing party, my wife thinks you guys are all spies, she said, I don't like you messin around with all those guys, I told her I was trying to get player fixed up with her sister and she gave me a really dirty look. I did think about it player, but she has three boys, that might tax your patience. If you check my old posts, I did comment that they were flying it a lot and wondered if it didn't on occasion need a little tweaking, I would be kinda surprised if they hadn't changed out power plants during/after the new year. So you guys be carefull who are in country, we love all this stuff, but watch your six, we don't want to breach any state secrets. Wolfie is right, we all spy on each other, even friends, thats one reason seeing the PLAAF have this bird out in the open is a refreshing change to all the cloak and dagger stuff. For those of you who think thats nieve, I know that, but I hope better things for all our children, there are enough bad people who don't respect life or freedom, those folks are the bad guys, not our trading tech partners. I note that some Air Force pararescue people jumped on a Chinese fishing boat in order to evacuate two injured crewmembers, one would hope that kind of humanitarian gesture would matter to all of us, sorry just blathering on.

So yes, as a matter of fact I have, only usually hillbillys will have a beer in the hand without the wrench, not me, just sayin.LOL

Darn, three boys? That'd kill me! I've been thinking it'd be nice to have just one daughter for a one child family, or a boy and a girl for a two children family here in China. You lucky Yanks' idylic life style is no option on this super crowded land, I'm afraid. Hehe...

And I used to be a mechanic under the shade tree working on my own car, you know. Ah, lots of fond memories of those carefree days...

I haven't seen any, and I doubt you could do that on the delicate F-22. For T-50, you definitely can, anytime!

Well I have worked on a few airplanes, but I never walked on a wing, you know what they say about country boys, you can take the boy out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the boy.

If anyone has seen the wider shots of this scene, there are a lot of people gathered to the side all dressed the same. I don't know if they're pilots. They don't look like the the typical guys we've seen already. I think they're showing off the J-20.

Here it is.
