Contemplating a career change.

Just joking.

Most likely reflecting on last minute chronology and thinking about how to report what happened.

And yet he still grasp his smart phone after being ejected. If I were him I'll be asking for a bottle of Malbec from Miragedriver and a cigar to be thankful that I'm still alive and no innocent people got kill after the crash.

According to news report, he borrowed that phone from villagers to report to base. He could be waiting for a call so he has to hold on to it.

Also, according to news local villagers offered him a drink but he did not accept and kept silent throughout.

4 or 5.

There have been incidents of J11B before but there's no cases of both engines failing as far as I can recall.

There's definitely cases of engine problems especially a few years ago. There has even been cases where the engines eject components out. But in recent years although training of J11B has intensified, number of incidents has declined dramatically.

Anyone know how many J11B equipped with WS-10 engines have failed and how many AL-31 equipped J10A/B have failed?

Don't know why they can't just fit WS10 engines to J10 programme unless that is because they don't have enough AL-31 units

Strangely enough J15 is refitted with AL-31 too

You need to remember that WS-10/A is product from Shenyang, the same company producing J-11A/B or J-15/J-16 ... that's why you would see all new J-11B and J-15 use WS-10A ... and obviously there are fierce rivalry between Chengdu (J-10x and J-20) and Shenyang

I believe the Chinese Govt would need to step in and separate it out between engine and aircraft manufacturer ... so fair for everybody

Ejection seats work almost all of the time the seat does what it is designed to do but the ejection alone does not warrant a successful and safe landing for the pilot

Money Back guarantee on those asif??? don't work, bring it in for a full replacement!:p
