Then everytime you are onboard of a boeing airplane, you need to worry. There are 5700 Boeing commercial airplane flying in the world now, and most of them have parts made in China. Also don't board any Airbus's A320, because it is also made in China.

The first Chinese commercial aircraft the ACAC ARJ21 has made its maiden flight in 2008. After 6 years of research and development, it’s finally taken to the skies. The first test flight lasted about one hour.
