A shrinking market,


Why do you think the market is shrinking? Â*I think it's
growing.


Then your thinking is clouded.


The market has been shrinking for a couple of decades,
but I believe there is a resurgence of interest at this time.


Your thoughts are not reflected by sales figures.


Yes, and you want to know why? Because the planes
are overpriced.


No, it is because most people have no interest what so ever in owning an
airplane and in fact a very large number of people are scared of "little"
airplanes.

Yes sales are off. Â*Interest is still high.


And from what market study did you get that information?


It's a culmulative understanding from multiple sources,
and partially driven by baby boomers who now have
interest in the LSA market.


Mostly because the operating costs are low and you don't need to be able
to pass a medical.
