Saudi pilots training includes

US and British systems
Air to air refueling

Many modern and competent air forces do not have this level of training….

Training

The self-sufficiency of the Royal Saudi Air Force in all the skills needed to operate an advanced modern air force and do justice to the sophisticated jet aircraft and affiliated systems at its disposal is a fundamental objective of Project AL-Yamamah.

At each training location in Saudi Arabia specialist staff work under the direction of the Royal Saudi Air Force, to provide Saudis with the full range of skills required to fly, maintain and support the aircraft, Training can be summarised under the categories of Flying Training, Technical Training and On the Job Training (OJT).

The article is also 7 years old and is probably reffering to the introduction of more advanced fighters….

number od hours flown, articles by serving or retired people who have served with the RSAF. I have managed to post two links by NON-SAUDIS , stating how good Saudi pilots are, other people have been mouthing off that their crap………so I ask a simple very easy question! Can you prove it!?

How comes people can talk the talk but are having difficulty getting any INDEPENDENT evidence about how “crap” Saudi pilots are!?

Sharmaji

Lets stick to the point here and try not to divert the issue (as you so often try and do when losing an arguement), give me one example of poor Saudi pilot training! Do not give me your assumptions about how you think foreign instructors train Saudi pilots, I want PROOF! Now put up or shut up!

If anyone is teaching Arabs/Moslems of the world – who are 1400 million + for those who are too ignorant to know – it is the American administration !.

Let’s just forget about our nationalities and think of the world as one little town, what would happen if u had a fight for one reason or an other with a neighbor and we became enemies ? a third neighbor who is more powerful than the two of us comes and starts helping my enemy – I’m not going to add that he was the aggressor – so what is the MOST HUMAN reaction to this third neighbor’s action ? give me a single human being who wouldn’t consider him an enemy .

So, some people gather from 200+ countries and decides a part of the Arab world is theirs, they’ve been there a few f#$%ing thousand years ago and now they want it back – although Judaism is inherited by motherhood NOT fatherhood so the nowadays Jews are mostly NOT related to the ancient Jews – ok, they buy the British government in need for their money during the first great war and they get it’s aid in gathering there, they buy weapons and kill their way into forming their dreamed of state on the skulls of Arab original population .

When Arab neighbors get angry about this and want their piece of land back – one ******** also says he will throw the occupiers into sea – a bully called the United States driven by politicians who are too afraid of the Jewish lobby comes to Israel’s help and arms it to the teeth, stating Arabs can’t get their own land back, LIVE WITH IT F#$%ING ARABS they tell us, Israelis can kill whoever they want because they were abused before, you can’t although you are being abused NOW, Israelis can violate anyone’s airspace because they are in self-defense, you can’t because you offensors who want their land back, shame on you, when an Israeli kills a Palestinian infant he’s a hero but when one Palestinian kills an Israeli soldier he’s a terrorist, you know what ? you are ALL terrorists, stinkin Arabs, we will humiliate you at airports, we will install dictators to rule you, we will launch cruise missiles and air raids at your cities when ever an American president is deep to his throat in some sexual scandal, we will finally invade one of your countries to look for WMDs that are NOT there and to remove the dictator we installed to oppress you .

What do you think Vector ??? WHO IS TEACHING ARAB KIDS TO HATE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ??? you still have guts to say it’s Arab dictatorships, which were ALL with NO EXCEPTION installed and supported in power by the US Administrations ???.

HYPOCRITES, this is what you guys who still believe that BS are, nothing more .

The organizations you call terrorist ARE the WHOLE ARAB nation, come on, annihilate us all, go ahead and add more fuel to the world, tell me how you are going to destroy one sixth of the world population, Hamas is terrorist they say, WELL THE WHOLE ARAB WORLD SUPPORTS IT, omit the few b@astards installed in government by your administration to rule, Hizbollah is terrorist they say, yesterday ALL LEBANON was there in Hizbollah’s support when they celebrated getting their POWs freed, Lebanon is 48% CHRISTIAN, you get the picture yet ??? people were celebrating in the streets of Damascus, Amman and Cairo not only in Beirut, TRY TO ONCE IN YOUR LIFE USE YOUR BRAINS AND UNDERSTAND, the whole Arab world is becoming against you NOT because they don’t like your color, your guts or because they are jealous of your technological advancement, but rather because of THE WAY YOU/YOUR GOVERNEMNT ACT .

Till when are you going to support the aggressor and oppress the victim ???.

I haven’t even yet started discussing all the exaggerations about the holocaust or in best scenarios the miss-use and greedy blackmail depending on it .

Finally, I realize you live in what you call the capital of the world, well; 1300 years ago Damascus was the capital of the world and my great great grandfather lived there, I therefore demand that you immediately handover your property peacefully or I’ll have to kill you and your children, commit a few massacres here and there – getting aid mean while from a few friends of mine – then oppress your neighbors for the rest of their pathetic lives, don’t worry about the world opinion, I’ll cry a little bit saying your neighbors want me dead and want to throw me in the sea and I’ll be having my friend’s protection so no problem there too .

GET THE PICTURE YET VECTOR ??? I DON’T THINK SO !.

Completey 100% agree with you kfadrat!!!!
I am sick to death of the Arab bashing in some circles round here!

Arab leaders – corrupt and bad
Arab Imams = Terrorists
Arab pilots = crap

It really is bordering on racism of teh most vile sort……

Especially cominbg from people who should look much closer to home before pointing fingers…..
