Default RE: AMA Needs my help?

Sure I did. Whomever owns the rights gets the royalties, or not depending on if they make arrangements for them.

Keep in mind before we start calling a company "greedy" that for every design that is purchased by the government, there is certainly a number that are not purchased. Who paid for the R&D on that plane? The tooling, staging, you name it costs a ton of cash. They only collect when they sell, and they don't always sell.

I also agree that the number should not be beyond the pale, but a few bucks for every model that sells is no big deal.
