Well stated Luchnia! I would remind everyone that no stick of balsa ever came from the USA! It would seem that unless made from some other material, every model airplane has had a fair amount of non-USA materials in it. How about the ago old covering, silk? Where did it come from?

Back in post #34, I pointed out that many products are now single sourced from China. If you choose to own some of the everyday products we all use, it will come from China and you won't have a choice to buy otherwise.
