A bit of a strange thread this one. It is like asking if you would boycott a product of china's without knowing if its the best thing since sliced bread or a rickshaw of the skies.

Why would a plane just because it is desgined and built in China be any less safe than one built in the USA or EUROPE.

It will after all have to meet the safety certifcation standards for each country they intend to fly them in to.

A poorly maintained boeing/airbus can rightfully be considered a danger, but its got nothing to do with where its made.
