I know you. You won't start a thread like this until and unless Pakistan Navy is seriously considering it or had considered it

It is possible that they are using an airbase in Chengdu to get familiarized as Chengdu is most comfortable for PAF (due to long history there)

 

[Armchair]

It is also possible that they took another flight after reaching Chengdu. I heard it from TheTallGuy who I believe is a reliable "car salesman" that top tier fighter pilots from the PAF were in Chengdu.

@Zulu @TsAr @ali razza Just thinking loud, pure speculation, could there be a ceremony for inducting all 3 new platforms in the pipeline?

Only special hardware these unique j10 could have is ws10 TVC engine which PLAAF don't have.

Zalima yeh sochaa haii uss din kitno ky pichwary jaal jain gyy ???many on other side of border and some on this side of border too looks like things shifted in top gear due to current situation

 

[Gripen9]

J10 don't make sense to me. Unless it is a "stop gap lease" for a few year. In that case these could be older A/Bs that PLAAF can "donate".
