Exercise 20

Check the Boeing website at http://www.boeing.com , and go to commercial aircraft orders. (Find "Products," "Commercial Airplanes," then "Orders and Deliveries.") Boeing gives the number of orders per type of plane (e.g., 767). For which type of plane would you expect Boeing to gain the most from learning effects? Why? What impact will this have on costs? Prices? Time to delivery?
