Cool video. The launches/landings didn't look much different than ours. Plane directors signals, FOD walkdown, etc....samo samo. I imagine they've learned much about carops from our extensive film/video tapes of flight ops.
Big differences... "ski jump" bow, small island/bridge, didn't see an LSO platform or some type of lens/landing aid? From the video obviously it's easier to conduct flops with just a few jets on the flight deck (as opposed to our usually crammed flight decks during cyclic ops). I am sure the Chinese will profit immensely by learning from the mistakes, sacrifices, and innovations made by the Brits & us over most of the 20th century.
