Besides that any info on what's the number of flighty by now ??

Counting flights seems to be no longer that interesting for the spotters :( or the security has been improved around CAC.

ok... this is very mysterious to me, why are the canards angled downward even though the plane is pitching up? is it something to do with the air flowing above the canards are at a very very low pressure that the plane is forced to pitch up?

Probably in the 40s by now... No one kept track. It is just a mundane occurrence these days.

Looks to me the plane is banking to one side and at the same time climbing up.

because deflection angle of canard doesn't equal to the AOA of canard. even deflected downwards it's still very likely positive AOA
IMO on higher angle of attack the incidence of the canard doesn't have to be as high as the main wing to generate the necessary pitching moment to trim, and that's highly related to static margin and EAS maybe?

Well i.e. is the right person to ask :)
