Default Airbus to set up China plant

So it appears that Aribus will train the workforce for their
competition. How cleaver. :-(


It's a typical case of greed favoring short-term profits at the expense of
long-term viability. The Chinese will take all the technology that they are
given, and then will start building their own aircraft, cutting Western
manufacturers out of the loop. Any Western aircraft manufacturer that fails
to realize this has to be incredibly stupid.
