This seems pretty standard from that part of the world. They are all farmers, they dont know their arse from their elbow when it comes to anything mechanical. When I was in China before deregulation and the only airline was CAAC we went on a couple of internal flights and they were on a B737-200 and a B727-100 and they were both flown single pilot. No crap, thats with out a word of a lie. The 73 yep but the 72 single pilot, thats a pretty good job.
