Why does aviation appear on both sides?

It is intra-industry trade inside the aeronautical chain: Brazil sold US$ 136.2 million in complete aircraft and bought US$ 158.3 million in parts and components. The crossed flow reflects different stages of one production chain, not competition between finished products.
