Default RIP Cessna...Skycatcher


"john smith" wrote in message ...
According to this mornings WSJ, Cessna's Pelton is quoted as saying that by building the Skycatcher in China, the cost
is $71k less than it would cost to build in the USA.
I wonder how much of that is liability insurance and how much is labor?



hmmm, so Cessna says they wanted to sell it for 110,000 originally, and they did not know where they were going to build
it. So now, minus the 71,000, they will sell for, just to be nice with extra margins, ~60,000? That would kill the
competition...
