![]() "C J Campbell" wrote in message ... Cessna built no single engine aircraft during those years. Liability insurance, which is a large part of the manufacturing cost of an airplane, had driven the cost up so high that there was virtually no demand. Cessna and other manufacturers said they would not build any more planes until there was some kind of liability reform. The Aviation Revitalization Act limited aviation product liability to 20 years from the date of manufacture, so Cessna and others started building planes again. The tort lawyers have made several unsuccessful (so far) attempts to break the 20 year limit. If they ever do succeed, the manufacturers will probably quit for good. Imagine if John Edwards becomes president. Think businesses are leaving in droves now, just wait. |
