Hmmm ??? are these two images really new ??? And the island does not look much different to the images in #407.
 
Yesterday CCTV Channel 4 (今日关注) said all weldings and external structural assembly have been completed Our people is starting the paint jobs on AC Type 001A

Also it was reported during a sea trial AC Liaoning was loaded with 10 aircraft on the deck which included flying sharks and our reconnaissance planes

On images 8 was so far the highest number confirmed. But what kind of reconnaissance planes does the PLANAF has esp. off the Liaoning ? IMO none.

CCTV 4: 1st Home-Made Carrier May be Launched in 2016

CCTV 4 in Focus Today discussion (Friday 12/2) attended by commentator Yin Zhuo again mentioned that AC Type 001A started to be painted (though with question mark), said further it may expect a launch within 2016. So there's a good chance that the indigenous AC will be launched in less than a month. Moreover it said that China will focus on developing carriers with catapult-assisted take-off system in future. It added that 12 PLAN & PLAAF pilots join carrier-based fighter forces. Support facilities in Djibouti is under smooth construction

Were the images posted the most update?

May be none for reconnasissane planes or they were plane of a different sort but not fighters
I may double check if I have the time to revisit the programme

No, I know them from a CCTV report from the 1. and 23. August this year, so they are actually even older even if I don't know how much.

Concerning the recce planes: As far as I know - and I would be eager to learn more - the PLANAF's only aircraft capable off the Liaoning is the J-15 ... and that's not a recce-pane. So what's wrong with that?

Care to explain?
