WSJ: Obama boosts Chinese jet

What do you think?

I received an e-mail today from someone in the aviation industry who is critical of President Obama who, on his trip to China this week, pledged support of China’s regional jet, which is in the works.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Obama said that he would push for closer technical collaboration and eventual U.S. safety approval for China’s ARJ21 commuter jet.

“This is just great,” said a reader in his e-mail to me today. “Something is badly and horrible wrong with these actions – destroy your own great USA aviation industry and build the foreign competitions industry – SAD.”
