Boeing begins flying back planes refused by Chinese airlines Beijing orders carriers to stop taking deliveries of US jets as part of its trade war strategy (130 undelivered Boeing airliners won't now be paid for and will have to be sold off elsewhere! That's about $25-30Bn of product) https://www.bangkokpost.com/business/general/3006447/boeing-begins-flying-back-planes-refused-by-chinese-airlines

The US plane manufacturer #Boeing has begun flying 737 Max jets that were refused by Chinese airline customers back to the United States, as the trade war between the world’s two biggest economies escalates. (blo) #SoMuchWinning

The return of the 737 MAX, #Boeing's best-selling model, is the latest sign of disruption to new aircraft deliveries from a breakdown in the #aerospace industry's decades-old duty-free status.

The #tariff war & apparent U-turn over deliveries comes as Boeing has been recovering from a near 5-yr import freeze on 737 MAX jets & a previous round of #trade tensions.

The jet…was one of several 737 MAX jets waiting at #Boeing's Zhoushan completion center for final work & delivery to a Chinese carrier.

#Trump this month raised baseline #tariffs on Chinese imports to 145%. In retaliation, #China has imposed a 125% tariff on #US goods. A Chinese airline taking delivery of a Boeing jet could be crippled by the tariffs, given that a new 737 MAX has a market value of ~$55M….
