Chinese are building Airbuses
Well, part of the plane anyway. There is a final assembly line in Tiajin and it will be open from today officially.
All parts are transported from Europe to China via Hamburg according to Flightglobal.com.
Chinese are coming to aviation markets too like they have done it in many industrial scenes like paper production and clothing. I guess Airbus have noticed that the labor works there many times cheaper than in western countries.
I just hope their final product will be better than the baby formula, chocolates, lead contaminated toys, and poisoned pet food they ship over here.
Yes, labor costs ARE cheaper in China. But, you don’t get something for nothing. China has a long history of producing substandard products at a substandard price. Let’s just hope their planes won’t be one of them.
