What’s a Dreamliner worth? Seems like the owner should have had the credit to run a tab. That’s more like a part price on my wife’s 12 year old VW. Plus it’s China. I’d have that part checked that it conforms to specs when I got back home.

“For a hydraulic pump INSTALLED on a 767?”
It depends on where you got it. For example, this one fell off the back of a truck.

Boeing farms out a lot of their work to other countries as well as other states. China builds wings for the B737 (or at least they did last time I heard). Boeing then can say they supply work for their people so buy our jets. Not sure if Airbus does the same but they do have facilities in the US.

Thought about applying there when they first opened the facility, but it’s 90 miles away...............
