NICE pictures!! thank you very much for sharing!

quick q - what the heck is that flame at the rear about? i mean - that's an open flame... what's that for?

Shark

This is fuel released during engine start-up through a "bleed" valve to purge the combustion system at low pressure when the ratio Fuel/Air is still not sufficient to provide a good efficiency.For safety reason it can't be released unburnt (risk of explosion) so it is ignited,thus controlled.

Right what I thought.

I have some sadly gone glory... The Illfated Black 63 from radom in full force during the rehearsals on friday before show:

P.S. Speaking about Radom, that black Su-22's hog on the nose is nicked from the Arkansas ANG... so I think it could have been done with a little more imagination as you could see with that horse nose-art.

Enjoy!

Hi Andrey.....

I noticed that already........

The Chinese J-15 has a similar 'unpainted' bit where the taileron is at max deflection.......

I wonder why ??? - as a very obvious indicator showing taileron travel ???

Very interesting.....

Ken

PS - Did your Dream Model Su-30MKK fins arrive yet? - mine haven't.

J-15 is not "unpainted", it is painted in yellow... What you see under the tailoron line is unpainted, just treated like "naked" T-50's and Su-35S'.

There is no mystery to this, it is simply lazyness.
