Cessna jock,

An interesting link you posted, in more ways than one.

Set my mind to wondering why it is that Australia has never developed an aviation manufacturing industry past the plastic fantastics or very small utility types? Even those seem to be continually battered by the Australian regulator.

Now Turkey, following the successes of countries like Canada, Brazil, Ireland and New Zealand.
Australia seems unable or unwilling to make anything other than big banks, miners or property developers.
