I actually agree with Big Bus Boy, but also its global situation in the aviation world. There are only two places in the world where development in the aviation takes place and those are: Far East and Middle East. Middle East because they simply have oil and gas that they convert in money and reinvest in transportation, without which the country and the region as such just cant develop. (They seem to understand it, but not only to understand but to succeed in doing so) In 50 years there will be probably alternate energy source and oil is also gone in most countries in Middle East besides Saudi Arabia. That’s why they stress so much on development aviation; it’s the key for the future development. Simply look what’s going on with Etihad simply bout aircrafts for 7, 1 billions. Qatar signed a deal for 5, 1 billions.
This offers you stability for the next 50 years; I think its very rear to find it in those days. Look what’s going on in Europe: the conditions are getting even worse and people have to work more for less money and pay more taxes. The whole democracy can’t help and will end up in government saying there is no money for your pension, sorry.
Far East because it’s just coming economy and as the economy grows so does the aviation. The consequences are the same.
