Two important lessons which the surviving European industry is now well aware of:

1) don't design for infrastructure constraints. Concrete costs less than planes and will get there first.

2) listen to your airline customer BUT NOT TOO MUCH. He can change his operation in 3 years but the manufacturer is stuck with the product.
