Flying the Made in China Jet - ARJ21-700!
Youtube ^ | Sam Chui

Posted on 06/16/2019 4:57:06 AM PDT by cba123

Youtube video of the brand new, made in China jet.

Note this jet only currently has received approval to fly in three countries. So far...

But this is (quite) significant.

We have become addicted to the crap for the simple reason that it was cheaper.

When you look at quality, the loss of industry, the dead cities and towns and the social costs was it really cheaper. The 3-4% you saved came at a huge cost.

Right an American made screw driver would cost $100, $200 even $300. The Chinese one costs $2.95 so I see your point. /sarc

A good Chinese screwdriver might cost $15.00 - there is still a bigger market in the USA for the $2.95 one. Whose fault is that?

This is a joke right? Free Traitor™ inflate the price of US made goods when in fact the are only marginally more expensive. In the 2-3% range.

It's Free Traitor™ like you that lie, scare and line their pockets while at the same time complaining about the socialism this creates.

If you find yourself in a,Russian or Chinese built aircraft, you are more likely to find yourself walking or swimming.

He’s not Donald. He is President Trump.

Donald is a masculine given name derived from the Gaelic name Dòmhnall.[1] This comes from the Proto-Celtic *Dumno-ualos (”world-ruler” or “world-wielder”).

Donald is a fine and fitting name.
...
That is all well and good and well-intentioned. By not calling him president you are doing the Democrats job for them they don’t want him to be president and they will not admit he is present and they will not give him any credit. So suit yourself call him Donald if you want but I will call him President Trump or PDJT.

*** Thank you for flying Harbor Freight airways. ***

Friend and I were building a deck. The battery in my $20 Harbor Freight drill/driver outlasted the battery on his Makita.

My success rate with HF is about 80 percent.

The impact sockets and some ratchets have stood up to plenty of hard use.

I'm sure that little triangular piece wasn't critical to the plane's airworthiness. The Bertolli Effect would still apply just fine without it.

Or is that the Barilla Principal?
