On this day in 2012, a yellow-painted, domestic carrier-based aircraft J-15 with number 552 landed on the deck of my country's first aircraft carrier, the Liaoning, and then skidded up again... This is the first time that a Chinese aircraft carrier has blocked the ship and skidded off. It was only two months after the Liaoning ship was officially delivered to the Navy.
