Soviet Fighter Pilot training

I know the V-VS ace Stepan Bakhaev was at VASP Krasnodar military aviation School for pilots from 1941 until 1943 and flew the U-2 biplane, and the two-seat UTI-4, UTI-16 fighter-trainers before getting some time on the Yak-1. But how was the course structured? For example were there set times spent on the U-2, UTI-4, UTI-16 etc, in different sub-schools? By that I mean would he have spent six weeks on one aircraft then four weeks on another etc.?

best regards

Keith
