The certain market leader is getting their lunch eaten by Cirrus, who last
year sold more piston engine singles. They will probably have to put up something new or exit the market sooner or later. "Dude" wrote in message ... OTOH, I am dissappointed in a certain market leader that has the financial ability to take the risk on a new plane, but will not. That is a perfectly acceptable business decision for them. Unfortunately, they are doing several things to poison the market and GA in order to continue milking the business they have. |

Unfortunately, they have too much power to go easily, even thought they
really do not want the business. Being publicly owned, they need a way to get our gracefully and profitably. They have lost the passion, but that just makes them even more dangerous.

It is sad as you have to believe that a company with Cessna's resources could design a might fine composite airplane. However, I'll also bet it is the lawyers and not the engineers that are in the way. The liability of a new design with new materials would be enormous and Cessna has a lot to loss unlike Cirrus and the other upstarts. I also think Cessna won't remain long in the SE market. They make more on the jets and have a lot less liability per dollar with them as well. Matt |
