Not by anyone *good*.

Who is "anyone", Chad?

I find it estranging that you put yourself into a position of representing
anybody but you here, and then, based on "educated guessing" about "what we
all know" about the Arab air forces, you conclude that the Saudis have a
poor air force "too"....

How much do you actually know about their air force, if you don't mind me
asking?

I mean: do you know the sellection process for their pilots? How many hours
Saudi, Syrian, Egyptian pilots get per month, or annually? What is their
training sylabdus looking like? Do you at least know where do they learn to
fly?
