Ok, just spent a week at Oshgosh like quite a few of you and, although
I noticed this before it just hasn't changed much. How many LSA's are made in the U.S.A.? I don't mean assembled, I mean, manufactured. Is it really impossible for Americans to design, manufacture, and sell products at a reasonable price and still make a living? Aircraft should be one thing my country could excel at. We have everything needed, materials, knowledge, ability, and desire, but most every aircraft in this category is either imported or the parts are imported and then assembled here. I'm not talking about a product that cost more to make than to just buy a cheap import. Light Sport planes have gone through the roof in just a matter of a couple of years. You can't convince me that there isn't a plane that can be designed and manufactured for a competitve price. It's not that I am against any other country making a buck here. I'm just very dissapointed in Americans not even trying. What happened here? Just a thought. Lou |
