Mattituck & Conti sold to the CHINESE!

Post by captain_john »

WOW! Say it ain't so!

AOPA Pilot, February 2011, Page 34, bottom of the page:

Deal struck to sell Continental, Mattituck

It seems that a deal is in the works to sell the US divisions to AVIC International Holding Company of China.

Hmmmm, the modern world economy changes fast and in ways that one wouldn't ever imagine!

Mahlon, can you tell us anything about the deal?
