you live in one boring place.
The Chinese are great at copying things. They still build a version of the Mig17 and the Mig21 I belive. They were also in hot water with GM for making a carbon copy of a Chevy a few years back. It totally looks like a short re-engined DC9.
Well we can add this to the Embraer made by Harbin Embraer and the Airbus in Tanjin China. Copycats!
