Wouldn't it be a better test of capability to start landing aircraft instead?
LOL!!!
I hope we have some assets nearby to take videos.
aircraft approaching the ship, landing and then quickly taking off again
Guess the taking off again they haven’t learned stopping.Should be fun to watch lol!
So how’s that “free trade” thing working out America?
Will we start to pay attention when our dollars have paid for a second carrier?
A fifth?
A fiftieth?...
Enjoy the military superiority while we have it. With our failing economy and the Chinese expanding economy, we are headed for a day when our carriers will be mothballed and the Chinese carriers will be drilling off our coasts.
Surprising that they would be using a frontline a/c for this training, whereas the USN uses a more training a/c such as the British Hawk for this training.
Dear China; you’re supposed to have all this confucian wisdom, well, start using it. Leave Taiwan alone. They don’t want to be part of your country and they’re our friends. If you feel the need to kick someone around, might I suggest North Korea? OK, maybe they’re your friends. How about Vietnam? There’s some friends for you. 55,000 Americans killed trying to help them and now all they can say is “Ooops. We were stupid”? Enter the phrase “ungrateful bastards” on any search engine and the first thing that pops up is a map of Vietnam. Shoot, I’ll bet we could make a fortune if you go after Vietnam. I’ll charter cruise ships and we’ll fill them full of American Vietnam Vets at $5,000 a pop and cruise up and down the coast of Vietnam and watch while you shell and bomb them. “Who wants another Ho Chi Minh Highball? Hey! There goes another bridge! I win the pot!” We’d make a fortune.

Post or FReepmail me if you wish to be enlisted in or discharged from the Navair Pinglist.
The only requirement for inclusion in the Navair Pinglist is an interest in Naval Aviation.
This is a medium to low volume pinglist.
Right...and before that it was going to be a floating “casino.” Maybe instead it will get accidentally sunk and then the ChiComs can “research” just how well an aircraft carrier works as an artificial reef.
I worked in Naval Aviation for 7 years and anyone know that landing on a strip painted up like a carrier deck or sims is one thing, but landing on a moving carrier is another thing and even for a veteran pilot landing on a carrier is nothing more than a controlled crash and how much night experience do this Chicom pilots have landing at night?
