Photo Comment

One of the few operational CJ-6s during the 4Aviation tour in late 2023. The aircraft was prepped for flying especially for the group and made a fine display - including colourful smoke - over its homebase. The basic trainer is assigned to the 1 Flying Training Wing at China Bay. The wing is operating the K-8, PT-6A (CJ-6A), and Ce150.
