As an instructor with over 1000 hrs training Chineese airline cadets. it does not surprise me in the least. They have an attitude to flying that simply horrifies me, unfortunately it doesnt change when they get onto the jets.
Airmanship is a concept that they just cannot under stand, and they dont want to understand.......to put it bluntly.
Racism?........no, just the way it is and nothing is going to change it ever.
