Building it in China, OH JOY! I would think this would be a negative.

Cessna has chosen the Chinese-government owned Shenyang Aircraft Corp. to
build the Model 162 Skycatcher. Earlier this week, Cessna announced it would
be building the Light Sport Aircraft offshore. In a news release, Cessna CEO
Jack Pelton said the company needed top quality at a competitive price and
SAC put it all together. "Our solution is to partner with SAC, a company
with excellent facilities, state-of-the-art technologies and a workforce
highly experienced in aircraft manufacturing. SkyCatcher customers will get
an advanced design, high-quality workmanship and world-class product
support, all at an affordable price from Cessna, a brand known and trusted
worldwide." The move, coupled with Cessna's acquisition of Columbia Aircraft
has dominated Cessna's profile in recent months as it continues to pile up
record sales for its business jets.
