Airbus is going to regret that decision. The old adage about capitalists selling the noose that hangs them holds true


Meh. Building an airplane isn't that hard anyways, China will get there soon if they aren't already (e.g. with the C919).

It is very difficult to build avionics and jet engines that work, which are just shipped whole sale in final assembly. It will take China much much much longer to replicate that technology, and final assembly rights aren't going to help much at all.
