1 December 2009:
Single-seat third-generation jet fighter, possibly J-10 or Su-27.
PLAAF.
Aborted air-to-mud training, and emergency landed with live bomb.

During air-to-mud training, locked-on ground target, pressed pickle button, and display said the live 500 kg bomb didn’t leave the rack. Circled around, locked-on ground target, pressed pickle button, and display still said bomb didn’t leave the rack.
Aborted training, RTB, and emergency landed with live bomb.

Pilot was HU Bo. Regiment deputy chief of staff.

(Date, possibly 1990s or 2000s):
Single-seat third-generation jet fighter, possibly J-10 or Su-27.
PLAAF.
Aborted sortie, RTB, and emergency landed.

Pilot noticed fuel was being used up faster than expected, declared fuel leak, aborted sortie, RTB, and emergency landed, with only up to two minutes of fuel left.

Pilot was WANG Cheng Ru.

(Date, possibly 1990s or 2000s):
Twin-seat jet fighter, possibly third-generation J-10 or Su-27.
PLAAF.
Aborted sortie, RTB, and emergency landed.

“Engine caught fire”, aborted sortie, RTB, and emergency landed, “with engine on fire”.

Pilots were regiment deputy political commissar LUO Jian Yu, and group deputy commander LU Wen Qing.

(Personally, I don’t know if the engine was actually burning, or only the engine fire warning light had lit up?)

(Date, possibly 1990s or 2000s):
Twin-seat jet fighter, possibly third-generation J-10 or Su-27.
PLAAF.
Scrambled to intercept a foreign civilian light plane that strayed from its original course, and into Chicom coastal territory.

As the intruder fled towards the sea, the Chicom fighter persuaded it to land. Eventually, when the Chicom fighter dropped some flares as warning, the intruder landed on a dried fish pond.

Chicom pilots were group deputy commander LI Ming Quan, and pilot JIANG Shi Bao.

Intruder pilot was “Colin Border” or “Colin Bordier” (?), a Brit and world ultra-light plane flight competition champion, with (then) 25 years of flight experience.

Scientists build the world’s first anti-laser

17 February 2011 Last updated at 18:58 GMT

Physicists have built the world’s first device that can cancel out a laser beam – a so-called anti-laser.

The device, created by a team from Yale University, is capable of absorbing an incoming laser beam entirely.

2011.01.19:
Accident cause was human error. Pilot probably mistakenly operated switch of hydraulics system that transmitted control stick motion to rotary wings.
Switch operation is different in UH-1 helicopter new J model and old H model. Accident helicopter was old H model.
During hover, if operated switch, in old H model, caused control trouble. In improved J model, could control.
Pilot probably mistakenly operated switch, could not maintain attitude, and crashed. Pilot did not remember he operated switch or not.
