The scale comparison seems wrong. Type001A appears smaller than CV-16. Look at the deck lift. Type001A one looks smaller than CV-16.
If put on the same scale. Type001A shall be few meters longer than CV-16.
Look at the deck lift. I don't think Type001A deck lift will be smaller than CV-16 given the flanker huge size.Any proof for that ??? ... so far all images and size estimations say it has exactly the same size even if a bit different geometry.
By the way ... last image was from nearly one week ago ?? No news or do they wait until it is painted ?

Finally a few new images ... but still no paint !
The English on the helmet is funny. "SHOOT IT"!This is just too awesome
It is important to remember that Liaoning is only a training vessel.
In this May 2012 file photo provided by China's Xinhua News Agency, Chinese aircraft carrier Liaoning cruises for a test in the sea. On Thursday China's Defense Ministry says the country's first aircraft carrier battle group has carried out its first live-fire exercise.

China’s Defense Ministry says the country’s first aircraft carrier battle group has carried out its first live-fire exercise.
It said on Thursday that dozens of ships and aircraft took part in the exercise “a few days ago” in the Bohai Sea in eastern China to test weapon performance and training levels.
The aircraft carrier, destroyers and frigates carried out exercises covering air interception, sea-based attacks and air-defense as well as reconnaissance, early warning and anti-missile systems.
The Ministry posted photos on its website of China-developed J-15 fighters on the deck of the carrier, Liaoning.
China said last month that the Liaoning was ready to engage in combat, marking a milestone for a navy that has invested heavily in its ability to project power far from China’s shores.
