Jet designer dies after carrier glory

The death was caused by cardiac arrest that took place immediately after the flight landing mission abroad the carrier, official sources said.
Luo, 51, was under severe mental pressure to achieve the landing feat, his colleagues have said.

Poor man.
There must be tremendous pressure to achieve targets like robots.
This is but the consequence where the Red Chinese makes everything a prestige issue and where life is of no concern.
Sad.
RIP.
