If there was enough volume they could build the plane for

They sell new cars for way less and there looks to be more

than a small plane.

You have confused the auto business with the airplane

business.
Auto
manufacturing allows economies of scale unatainable by

aircraft
mfg.
And
remember, auto makers break even or lose money on many of

their
models.

Like I said they just need the volume and it could be done.

Where is the demand going to come from? There are not enough

people
interested in flying their own planes to even come close to

providing
manufacturers any economy of scale.

At that price it would replace all of the current old 150 to180

size
aircraft.

An Arrow replace a 180? I don't think so.
Your right I should of said fixed gear aircraft.


I rest my case.

Boy, he certainly has done his market research.

Next he'll tell us how he can avoid FAA certification and parts STC's.


Maybe he has an STC for a 180RG.
