Gravity is still a limiting factor! 😃

AND STRUTTED WINGS! Given how small the light aviation market is, how many of these companies can even dream of being profitable or getting to a scale where manufacturing efficiencies can drop the price to affordable levels?

@@waynerussell6401 Multiple thousands per year… gets us to really expensive affordable…. 20k gets us to Corvette expensive affordable…. 200k gets us to Taurus affordable… The challenge of getting Model T affordability…. The plane would need to be as simple as possible for everyone to be able to use. Fixed tricycle gear, under powered, light weight… sparse digital panel.

@@AC-jk8wq The biggest selling light aircraft in the world is the Cessna 172 and it has average sales of 638 per year over 69 years! If you are to use the automotive model as comparison the Piper J-3 Cub is the Model T with output of one every 20 min during its wartime peak production. Still over 5000 flying, but less than 19 000 made. My father pioneered aerial topdressing in a PA-18 post war and a few have towed me up slowly in gliders. A parallel process was an attempt by FAI in the early 1990s to make a everyman's glider that could also be adopted by the Olympic Committee for Olympic air games. The goal was a glider that cost about the same as an average car and could compete in basic badge flights and training with a > 30:1 L/D. The competition winner was the Polish PW-5 'Smyk' (Rascal) although the Russia had better performance it was adjudged unairworthy. It sold ~200 at greater than required cost which was more than better performance gliders available. Optimistic analysts predict a doubling of market to $18B in the next 5 years for light aviation with 14% CAGR, siting improved manufacturing with advanced composites, avionics improvements and more uses. They are wrong! Just like OEM cars which are increasing rapidly in price ($48K average sale in US) while sales are falling and fuel prices increasing, it's a slide into oblivion. Just like Tesla is showing the way in Automotives, the disruptor in commercial light aviation is drones, taking the lion's share of surveillance, agriculture, search and rescue, emergency deliveries, remote access...

posso risponderti in italiano.. ho girato velocemente tutto il padiglione B5 ma non so se li ho inquadrati... facendo una ricerca i konner risultavano in esposizione.... magari erano in un altro padiglione.. mi spiace

yes!! it's been my first time there 😀

se parti da zero è impossibile imparare una lingua guardando film. il primo passo per quasi tutti sono gli anni di scuola che ti danno le basi di grammatica. Prova con un corso base , ce ne sono anche su youtube di gratuiti... ma ci vorrà costanza ed impegno. Se poi deciderai di vivere in Inghilterra, farai presto poi a perfezionarti

A friend of mine learned English from watching "Sesame Street". His birth language was Spanish, that may have helped him because Sesame Street had many segments in Spanish.

Спасибо за видеорепортаж.С уважением из России.

thanks! 👍

Brescia è sottovalutata turisticamente...è un peccato 🙂
