A group of cadet pilots recently completed their first independent carrier-borne J-15 fighter jet flight in #China. They performed different flight maneuvers as part of the training, including simulating landing on an aircraft #carrier. Flying a carrier-borne fighter jet is highly demanding, as the aircraft carrier flight deck is said to be the "most dangerous 4.5 acres in the world."
