In the world of manufacturing our jets are essentially hand made. They are low volume with a minimum amount of production tooling.
What happens at the "best" company when the star employee gets a more lucrative job and the guy (or girl) building your jet was planting rice on a farm 2 months ago.
It's possible to get a great jet from a bad company and a bad jet from great company. (I've had both)
Where the good companies shine is in their ratio of good to bad and their customer service to catch and fix what is bad.
Best of luck to all, hoping that all of your jets fall into the "Great" category.
Also comes down to the design. No matter how good the materials or build is, if the airframe is designed improperly it will not be successful. BVM's strength has been in design and manufacturing... their customer service is also top notch.
