They indicated it was being built by Ajin, which built some of their early engines. They are also indicated the engines would be here last August, so who knows what is really going on. <br />They lost one of their chief pardners recently and I know some money problems have caused them to raise money by selling off many engines recently on their blowout sale. <br /> <br /> The UP mountain is still on their schedule and I am sure it will be here in the sping, but from China, not Ajin. Most of the recent models have been built in China and are still good and acceptable models. <br /> <br />
