What could this be?

Platform testing WS-20 engine ! We already knew but that's a new shot !

Same photo after after changing color tones.

Huuuuu ... even if the Chinese air pollution is quite well known, this greenish look gives it an even more dangerous look.

Here's my use of photo editor and it's clear that WS-20 is in yellow !

The forward cowling around ws-20 has always been yellow since the first blurry pictures came out. I suppose there has been no reason to change it.

Okay...here's my shot at it. Full pic, and then a close up:


LOL! Everybody wants to get into the act.

No smoke!!!
