Care to elaborate on what was causing the CFIs to potentially lose their certs?

BTW Sierra has been doing international airline contracts for over 40 years. We just haven't ever done anything on this magnitude.
Well, I guess I focused on the bulleted points numbered 1 through 5 which point out the difficulties of training international folks. Remember, the East is not the west; much of what CAVOK says is true - they will say yes, sir even if they have nno freaking idea what youre talking about. They seemed to do whatever they want to without regard to understanding how their choices affect others (see the circling over tinker and other one landing there). These are bad things.

I'm sure Sierra is great with international contracts. Are they mostly European contracts? Does Sierra have any experience with lets say Korea, Japan or India? If you do, great. Disregard any caution I might lay out there.

However, I'd suggest doing a search with the key words "Spartan" & "Chinese"
