Appears that the China Spy Plane End game is in sight. Each side will look at a coin. The Chinese side will see heads (an apology) and the US side will see tails (an expression of sorrow and regret). They will both enthusiastically agree that they are looking at the same coin.

RE: "It occurred to me the Chinese intentionally clipped the plane within range of an emergency landing at a Chinese airport."

This is the second time I have heard this opinion today. I do not see how you could "intentionally" make this scenario happen. This was a freakish incident that you could only be repeated on a movie screen.

This whole thing was great luck for China. Do not think for a second their government cares about the loss of one of their pilots. They would gladly make this trade as many times as they could.

I do not think this is over. Once the crew is back home, the relations may get worse as the "investigation" starts. As tempting as the Chinese market is, I will never feel that any American company can have a good, solid business agreement with them. Such is life..........
