The planes are reportedly similar to what you get in the Boeing and Airbus products.

Even though China’s aerospace industry is not as developed as what we see in the West, it is developing rapidly. They’re hiring their smartest people to make these planes and that is the opposite of what we are seeing in the West.
We’ve all seen the diversity bullshit that Boeing is pushing. They’ve prioritized hiring nigger engineers over the safety and quality of their products. If they continue this, you are going to see airliners across the world flock to buy Chinese planes because they will prove themselves safer and more reliable.
