And the more complex the plan, the more likely to occur.

Millions of parts all provided by the low bidder. What could go wrong?

—”Millions of parts all provided by the low bidder. What could go wrong?”

A very popular phrase in the military.

That said a serious manufacturer will have design specs that will knock your socks off.
And aviation is intensely serious.

And along came Chinese crap.
I worked a bit with a guy that had been a QC engineer for Dell in China.
He said if there is any for them to cut a corner, they will.

American and Chinese crooks faking certificates and now we have a counterfeit anything.

With an aircraft or a bridge or ... it is murder.
But Charlie Chan didn’t know the bolts were not X-ray grade so slap his hand...

IMO the Chinese are quite capable manufacturers but sent the reject crap offshore.
