It is better to go and settle in China than India

Wow! what amazing plane. New big plane, speed trains, best infrastructure. Good people. Everything is in favour of China. In India there are no toilets. Roads are toilets. No no I dont want to discuss anything more. Its better to settle in China.

Their ARJ 21, Advanced Regional Jet has flown and is nearing certification so the C919 will definitely be there soon too.

Amazing what confidence can do. The beleived they can take on Airbus and Boeing and most probably will. India's industrialists are confident but the economic environment provided by the politicians are lousy. Hopefully the experimental planes like saras and now the tejas will translate into commercial successes in future. Think success and we will be successful.

It's not simply confidence. In India one problem is that competing agancies would prefer to have a condition of stasis rather than co-operation. In China, often, if there is reistance from any of their labs, their political authorities can iron out differences. One other advantage that the Chinese have is that they are able to spend loads of cash without really being accountable to anyone.

But yes, it is a shame for till about the 1980s, India had a technological leads of sort over the Chinese, but now, of course, it is a different story!

Have we not experienced the Chinese buses procured by BEST? Every now and then they are catching fire. Understand more than 20% are stabled for want of spares, fire accidents, and very high cost of maintanance. K.V. Viswanathan.

We can trust and fly Chinese C 919 only if its Aero Engines come from the stable of GE or Rolls Royce and not from its own manufacturing facilities.Not withstanding the above truth, Hearty Congrats to Chinkies as they have proved
themselves with actions unlike us,who are only fit enough to mouth slogans.
