Please, shoot me down in flames. I'd welcome such an answer.
I followed a link from one of these forums to a TIME article that described how Ukrainian pilots are taking privately-financed simulator training somewhere in the USA. The Ukr AF selected the pilots, and when the reporter visited there were five "under instruction": This is being done as a way to compress the time needed to get the A10's operational if the all-clear is given: Real training obviously has to follow.
