RE:RE:RE:RE: China is capable of building airplanes
absolutely correct. They are building parts of the fuselage or should I say assembling parts of the fuselage. The material is shipped there for the assembly but not made there. Anybody can assemble a part of something,given enough training, but actually designing the aircraft, aircraft systems, avionics and then testing them is another story. Anyone can cut a string to make a shoelace but trying to build the whole shoe without the know-how is a different.
