Their training is excellent. Last I heard both Chinese and Indian pilots are getting 300 hr's/yr. For comparrison purposes, US pilots get 250 hr's/yr.

I trust they've learned their lessons from the Korean War. Their training is more than:
  1. turn engine on
  2. pull back on stick
  3. raise gear
  4. pull trigger
  5. lower gear
  6. lower flaps
  7. turn engine off
  8. repeat as needed
