Instead of designing, put in production and certifying an entire new large commercial airplane... Why don't they refurbish and modify a DC-6?! I would say that it would be much cheaper to put in-service a dozen of such, test the hardware in real conditions and then raise more capital.


We have also Lockheed Orions all over the world being retired by the dozens. Why not rebuild some and start from there. An Orion is something like an Electra, an airliner... That has even the proper name!
