Yeah. They have so much experience with carrier landings.

I believe every American carrier pilot since the early 1930s has been trained somewhere along the way by men who had experience in deck landings with whatever was "hot" in their day. Never been able to imagine how China, Russia or any other nation could start from scratch.

Good afternoon.

They would just have to use some of that money they are making to hire some. If they could buy a President and a Commerce Secretary they could surely find a mercenary carrier pilot with a yen for Yen..

I bet the Chinese are trained on American carriers, first. I understand we trained Soviet / Russian carrier pilots, too...
