GSB,

Most of our owners aren't affected by this little glitch.... Also, if you owned a jet, you could sell it and buy a share or card. Once you've done flying in your own aircraft, you're very reluctant to go back to the airlines.

Also, Europeans are viewing the bizjet not as a luxury item, but as an important business tool. 2 hours versus 10 min to get on your aircraft. Your meeting runs late, now instead of stopping the meeting OR flying home the next day, you make a call and your aircraft waits for you.

Will the bizjet market create thousands of jobs? No idea. Will it continue to grow. Yes, maybe a bit slower than in the last couple of years but it's still expanding.
