They’re still bound by the OSA so no problem there eh?

It’s crazy!

Doesn’t make it right. They are the potential enemy at the moment. These are privateers who are training Chinese pilots to be as good as they are.

If they invade Taiwan, they could be seen on a similar footing to Russia

What I'd be more worried about is how they got contact details of these pilots.

Perhaps give former pilots a golden handcuff deal

You don't think China are an enemy? They are extremely dangerous nation with a massive ego and an authoratarian regime that treats it's citizens with utter contempt.

That doesn't make them our enemy. They are huge competition for the US and EU, but that doesn't make them an enemy

On radio saying they would be covering how and when fighter aircraft will be used in a conflict.

£240,000 per year vs OSA, i guess.

Potentially very serious you might think……

You seem really naive. Start understanding Geo Politics...and then you realise why Russia and China do what they do. They are both really dangerous because of their history. They both see themselves as huge players....but like we are seeing with Russia they are not. Both are corrupt to the core and when called on...there is nothing there...their armed forces are shadows of their former selves....it's all been siphoned off. They simply can't compete with the West. Period.

If history makes a country dangerous, you had better not read up on the British empire.

China , a big player, yes, it's a big country with lots of ppl who want a better standard of living.

The Chinese military is huge, so is their economy, and it's a very modern country with ultra modern cities and infrastructure.

Your post is one of the most nonsensical i have seen in a long time

Yes indeed it seems CJ has little understanding of what's actually going on in the world today . China has shown itself to be just as dangerous to world peace and stability as Russia is currently displaying .

Essentially any country that has no democracy, no free speech is (in my mind and most reasonable people) a Third World country. China and Russia come under that umbella. It also leaves them open to the whims of their authoratarian leaders. That makes them extremely dangerous.
And they also have huge chips on the shoulders. They actually want to be Western as well...note how many Russians and Chinese are fascinated with all the culture, trappings of the West.

You may not like them or what they stand for, but that doesn't mean they are our enemy.

Russia is in Europe, well most of the important bits are, and they are as westernised as you or I. Another nonsensical post.
