China and civilian planes?
Well, this can't be good news to our long term domestic trade imbalance. Pretty sure civilian aircraft from Boeing have been big sales to China for a while now. Couple of decades from now, I can see Southwest and every other airline buying these things in further effort to "maximize" the bottom line.

Hey, there's a reason they lure companies in to do their manufacturing cheap there. We've trained them how to properly do it!

How much of the electronics/components of current era planes are already made in China? A fair amount, I bet.
