China Is Buying Up Dozens of U.S. Commercial Airliners. We Should Be Worried. MAGA |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 77186915 United States 06/29/2020 08:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | China Is Buying Up Dozens of U.S. Commercial Airliners. We Should Be Worried. MAGA After years of aggression, broken promises and falsehoods, most recently about the coronavirus outbreak, the Chinese government has finally begun to face the consequences of its misconduct. On behalf of industries that range from technology to pharmaceuticals, the United States is fighting back against the Chinese. Why then is it looking the other way as Chinese companies buy up the commercial aircraft that Americans fly? After years of aggression, broken promises and falsehoods, most recently about the coronavirus outbreak, the Chinese government has finally begun to face the consequences of its misconduct. On behalf of industries that range from technology to pharmaceuticals, the United States is fighting back against the Chinese. Why then is it looking the other way as Chinese companies buy up the commercial aircraft that Americans fly? In April, a company named BOC Aviation purchased twenty-two airplanes from United Airlines and leased them back to the carrier. The sale included Boeing 737-9 MAX and 787-9 planes that can be expected to serve in United’s fleet for two decades. The previous month, American Airlines conducted a similar sale and leaseback of twenty-two of its own Boeing 787 aircraft. In May, Southwest Airlines sold ten of its Boeing 737-800 planes to the company and then leased them back as part of the deal. A May 4 article in the Financial Times appropriately titled “BOC Aviation Taps Parent for Assault on Leasing Market” indicates that BOC Aviation is headquartered in Singapore. In fact, “BOC” stands for “Bank of China,” which is wholly owned by the Chinese government and is therefore tied inextricably with the Chinese Communist Party and its international aspirations.

Think about that. Our government is allowing its foremost adversary to buy up the aircraft our citizens fly. Could this be a coincidence or simple business transaction devoid of political or national security considerations? That is a near-impossibility when it comes to China. Its foreign business activities are increasingly linked with its governmental efforts to dominate important fields and disrupt the economies of the United States and the rest of the free world. |

MAGA Insist that laws are passed that make foreign nations unable to purchase necessities or infastructure or resource businesses. And for fascist or communist, nothing. Norway could buy a clothing store maybe, but no one can buy logging companies, mining, minerals, pork farms, orchards, shipping, transportation et et, or Big Pharma. But not China or N Korea.

Although in theory it is a good investment... to buy airliners and lease back for profit, with the covid virus they released our air travel has tanked and it'll take years to rebound and probably decades before China recoups their investment. |

MAGA That's what Aircraft Leasing companies do . They either buy the planes out right from Boeing / Airbus or purchase the used planes from airlines and lease them back. Most airlines are not government owned so the purchase of a new plane is expensive (over 100 million ea. for many models), thus, you can lease instead at a monthly rate. Basically same as people do for new car leases. There are about 4 major commercial aircraft leasing companies world wide and may airlines depend on that service. |
