Perhaps with those quantities the costs would begin to become fathomable. 


Right now we just need to get the damn thing started.

Speaking of costs, NG has stated, in general, "that 65 percent of the cost of an airplane was resident in the airframe and 65 percent of that cost was in assembly."  At 550M per copy (I'm guessing that's sans engines?) that's 357.5M airframe and 232M assembly costs.


Is it logical to expect that learning rates will allow at least a 30% cost reduction in assembly over the 100 units?
