Escalates for good trade war with a passenger aircraft Boeing 737 Max traveling to China returned to the US because of … duties.
The 737 Max aircraft, intended for Xiamen Airlines, landed at the Seattle Boeing Field, according to Reuters and “paid” the trade war with China and the US.
The aircraft landed at Seattle’s King County Airport after a flight of nearly 8,000 kilometers, with intermediate stops to refuel to Guam and Hawaii.
The plane was one of the many 737 Max waiting for the Boeing Completion Factory in the Chinese city of Zhushan and are ready for final work before being delivered to Chinese airlines.
According to Reuters, a Chinese airline receiving a Boeing aircraft could be paralyzed by duties, as a new 737 max is a market value of about $ 55 million.
The return of the 737 Max, Boeing’s most successful model, is the last sign of disorder of new aircraft deliveries from the collapse of the decades of tax -free aeronautical industry.
