You said you're selling kits for $11,000. That's about $90,000 less than
these sportplanes are selling for. That is a big difference and I don't see
the logical path from your $11,000 kit being realistically priced, therefore
the $100,000 sportplane must realistically priced.


Seems like that implies about $90,000 in labor/ancillary materials
like paint and rivets, tools and other logistical costs, like
floorspace to go from kit to completed plane. Seems excessive
but is a plane built from an $11,000 typically comparable to
a 100,000 plane?
