Nice one, Chip.
A possible way for "Wilbur" or "Lennie" to produce his/her/their cheap gliders...

Use prison labor.
Wages are about ten cents an hour plus the fees paid to the company running the prison. There is no need to provide employee benefits. Wonder if anyone checks that the factory is a safe and healthy place to work? Overrated.
Employees are conveniently housed on site, like Dubai construction workers. Additional fees paid to the prison management might give your best employees incentive to remain with you beyond their original contract period.
With the factories located in the USA you can even use slogans (apparently people fall for them) like: "25% more than a PW5, same low price" "make America great again" "new improved formula", or the one Wal-Mart got busted for using: "made in the USA".
Wilbur/Lennie can be leaders in the new American way!

Diabolical laughter, with lots of reverb...
