By the way, who is the person who started the rumour that J-20 will fly today? Is there an official statement or just pure speculation since the Big Shot are coming down? Maybe the agenda was just for the big shot to see the progress of the plane and how advance it was... all the system and stuff. And when final tuning was completed, then the big shot will get to see it fly.
i'll come back in a few weeks.
i must say, i'm not -at all- impressed with this.
if it takes this long to run a test-flight, it just might be 2025 before this thing flies for real!
thumbs down!!!
And if that was pure speculation, what is there to be so disappointed about. And whats with the 'thumb down', afterall there is no official statement telling anyone that the plane will fly and it is up to us to want to believe it or not.
Also... we are only just seeing the photographs of the J-10 last month or so, they are just prototype, might not even be a flying samples... and do you know how long it get the F-22 or T-50 to fly? Might be longer or the same. Note that, whatever we didn't see, does not mean it was not there. The Russian and the American might have taken a long period of time to get their 5th generation fighter making maiden flight too.
