Default RE: Future of Jets

Hi
Saying as I started this debate I thought I would put my own impressions on the record.
I think the super sized super scale jobs will still be around however I think they will be fewer in number, I also think the continuing growth in the Jet sector will be down to the smaller Jets the Wrens 54/44 size. For proof of this you only have to look at the L39/MW44 thread. It is on it 70 plus page and the poor( or maybe happy guy) who is making the L39 kits cant make enough of them.
Speaking for myself I will be looking for the smaller end of the market. Planes that fit the Super sport. The likes of a Avonds F15 or a Yellow Raptor would be as big ( and as expensive as I would go ).
My main reason is that I dont want to put all my eggs in one basket. For one big complex Jet I can have several less complex and more affordable jets.
Part of the reason for starting this thread was hopefully to show the kit makers where the future lies and hopefully see more kits coming out to meet that market.
