Default RE: Are jet accessory prices getting silly?

Todd hit the nail on the head. There just isn't the volume in sales, you have to recover r&d, development, tooling costs, manufacture costs and the sales end. Then you add to the fact that everything gets outdated within 3-5years and your initial up front costs are lost. Then oil costs, everything that is made of plastic is oil based.
