Chinas' BRAINY REVENGE -Sends BACK NEW Boeing Jet Made MORE Expensive By Tariffs
With estimated $55MIL price set to balloon by 125%, 737 Max returns to Seattle production hub still wearing the colours of Xiamen Airlines - As reported before most US autos are BUILT in China & Canada and sometimes the shell is made in the US...OR vice versa The Guardian 22 APR 2025 ![]() Boeing 737 MAX airliner, intended for Chinas Xiamen Airlines, arrives at Seattles King County international airport after returning from China due to the tariff dispute ![]() DUH... A Boeing jet intended for a Chinese airline landed back at the planemakers US production hub on Sunday, a victim of the tit for tat bilateral tariffs launched by Donald Trump. The 737 MAX, which was meant for Chinas Xiamen Airlines, landed at Seattles Boeing Field at 6.11pm, according to a Reuters witness. It was painted with Xiamen livery. The jet, which made refuelling stops in Guam and Hawaii on its 5,000 mile return journey, was one of several 737 MAX jets Boeings bestselling model that had been waiting at Boeings Zhoushan completion centre for final work and delivery. ![]() --China reportedly ordered its airlines to HALT Boeing jet deliveries amid US trade war..Carriers also asked to stop purchases of aircraft-related equipment and parts from US firms, report says Trump this month raised baseline tariffs on Chinese imports to 145%. In retaliation, China 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 around $55MIL, according to IBA, an aviation consultancy. Beijing is reportedly considering ways to support airlines that lease Boeing jets and are facing higher costs. Last week it was reported that Chinas government had asked Chinese airlines to pause purchases of aircraft-related equipment and parts from American companies like Boeing. China holds about 20% of the expected global demand for aircraft over the next two decades. Boeings order book had 130 planes scheduled for deliver to Chinese companies at the end of March for both commercial airlines and leasing firms, Airways Mag reported. It was not clear which party made the decision for the aircraft to return to the US. Boeing had not responded to Reuters requests for comment at time of publication.. ![]()
