Yes, she looks almost ready to float out! FAST assembly despite the "blackout" curtain below rear elevator........

Apparently #1 type 075 has been "launched", but I have yet to see pics of her afloat!

There is a photo of the HAPPY crew-to-be all applauding on cue, however. DFO

And in a totally AMAZING coincidence, look who happened by just as the 075 #1 was floating in the river; all the way from Chile!

The 075 was moored aft of yet another 071. Both are now fitting out, and not a yuan wasted on a useless LC$!.........DFO
