Here are some images supposedly taken by someone on board the passenger ship that escorts ex-Varyag on her trials. The stern has received some modifications since the last sea trial to facilitate landings.

Here's a list of the vessels and aircraft that took part in the Russo-Sino naval exercises:

112, 115, 137, 138, 527, 528, 548, 529, 530, 2 Songs, 022s, 881, Peace Ark, J-8s, JH-7s, Z-8s, Z-9s...

A total of 16 vessels and two submarines from Chinese navy would participate the drill, including five missile destroyers, five missile frigates, four missile boats, a support vessel and hospital ship. Together with them are 13 aircrafts and five shipboard helicopters.

The Russian warships include the Pacific Fleet's flagship Varyag, a slava-class guided missile cruiser, Marshal Shaposhnikov, Admiral Panteleyev and Admiral Vinogradov, three Udaloy-class destroyers.

PS. Those little 022's carry one hell of an anti-ship punch with 8 C803 ASM's each. At last count, there were over 70 in PLAN service...
