Thanks, learned something...but don't anyone find the covering kinda...er, crude? Like somebody bought some insulation sponge/foam from the market and...they secure it with sticky tape? If they do that it probably this airframe have yet apply any RAM coating.

I do love how this photo shows the hi-lo world of China. Besides from the covering there's also one guy on a bicycle following everybody else.

That's a electric bicycle.

I still rather be on the tow car.

Being in an open flat field, a lot of things can kick up FOD. That vehicle's tires might kick up some dirt. Better safe than sorry.

Maybe its a Pinarello Doggie, bikes are way cool, not as cool as fighters, and the Chinese people do a good job building lots of high end bikes, esp carbon fiber and titanium. I did 20 miles on my Cannondale Caad 7 this morning before breakfast, awesome. I suppose I relate somewhat to the Chinese way of doing things, my buddy has an old bike with lots of do dads, I have a nice bike with fewer do-dads. The J-20 like our own ATF has the ability to operate off of unimprove or battle damaged airfields, as that was one of the design criteria of our own ATF, it could come in very handy sometime, and lots of thrust and good wing area seem to help the J-bird get off the ground in a robust fashion. Now to the PLAAF, could we have some more neat videos of 2002 please, we promise not to give away any state secrets, right guys?

To keep the identity of those workers a secret. There are a few number of software that have face identity recognition out there that are available to any intelligent services.

Well, is it possible that the bicycle guy was actually the J-20 test flight pilot, who just wanted to have a change now and then....

New pic ?



Edit: never mind it seems an old pic of 2002 along with 2001.

Found this one on Weibo 42 minutes ago, something may happen in Shenyang in a few months.
