In the airspace to the west of Rong City, atop a J-7 fighter-trainer, an experienced and a new pilot were conducting training exercises.
After completing the first roll, the voice from the tower resonated in their headsets:
"Eagle, there's a GJ-21 Meteor Advanced Trainer above you. Be aware, over."
"Eagle received."
"Rookie Eagle received."
The instructor in the backseat looked up and indeed saw the beautiful red and white streak of the Meteor Advanced Trainer swiftly passing by, leaving a trail in its wake.
"Rookie Eagle" glanced at it and then said with a hint of envy:
"Chief, private companies are already flying trainers with electronic flight control systems. The Meteor Advanced Trainer can fly at 22,000 meters and 2.2 times the speed of sound, right? Why are we still flying the J-7 fighter-trainer? When will we get to fly the J-10?"
