Hardly. CFII was right. A bunch of Indians and Russians found it a great way to skim, bribe and divert millions of rupees into their pockets. |

I was curious as to why they painted "Danger" on the side of the tail hook of the brand new 29 being built. Figured it would be something in cyrillic or hindi. Then the Indian Navy dude started speaking English and all the signs on the walls were in English.

Gorgeous fighter, and it definitely looks to have some nice upgrades in the cockpit. I also thought the hangar bay trolley system was neat, but in practical use I imagine its a bastard compared to just using a tug to move aircraft. The arresting cable system looks familiar, along with their landing approach lights.

Clients from India have told me that English is used as sort of a "bridge" language between some parts of India where languages other than Hindi are primary since there's always someone who speaks (sorta) English around. |

With all the fire control training that we all know the Indians will have, the first fire that breaks out will be the end of that ship.
The first step will be to argue for about a day about how to put the fire out gd |

Why is the flight deck curved, and is that a better design than U.S. made carriers? They are launching without a cat. Instead they have those chocks that collapse into the deck rapidly, and the jet is in full afterburner, so when it hits that ramp it gets flung into the air a bit. Also the ship is hauling ass into the wind, so all that equals a successful launch without a cat. I wouldn't say its a better design, just suited to their purposes and aircraft designs. It also eliminates a complicated piece of machinery and the associated personnel. |

So in order for that thing to be combat effective they need 50,000- 70,000 gallons of diesel a day? I hope for their sake I really FUBARED that conversion because that sounds like a hell of an Achilles heel. Not sure what our old carriers in WWII averaged but damn...in the modern world that seems like it would be a problem.
