Looks like we are on a slow boat to China. I hope production balance is written with some teeth. The last JV settlement set a terrible precedent. Now we need every cent of profit sharing more than ever. China and India are supposed to be our growth focus in Asia. Looks like the only thing growing is the international partners and Deltas equity stakes in them. Profit sharing is the only way to get a piece of this lucrative expansion (if you can call it an expansion.) I just may not need that Chinese visa or that Mandarin Rosetta stone.
