pinged him 4 ya.
And HERE is a google maps link to the Satelite view of the secret Chinese airbase that was PURPOSE-BUILT to take the Senkaku Islands:
Note the cammo pattern on the airstrip, taxi-way and the meticulous effort to disguise the convex aircraft shelters, etc.
Note the shadows.
The large apron is to accomodate the surge of Il-76s that will be required to fly the Chinese SpecOps guys over there.
Zoom out and further northeast youll see the base facilities, soccer field, etc.
Thanx guy. I still haven’t figured out how to cut and paste yet.
