The Peer Produced Airplane
 •    In the past, Boeing wrote detailed
      specifications for each part and
      asked suppliers to build to a plan.

 •    Today, suppliers co-design
      airplanes from scratch and deliver
      complete sub-assemblies to
      Boeing’s factory, where a single
      plane can be snapped together like
      Lego blocks, in as little as 3 days.

This Quote...got me thinking?

                                      “When I was a boy a family motor
                                      car cost three times the value of an
                                        ordinary suburban home, now a
                                        suburban home costs three times
                                            as much as a motor car.
                                       Now that shows the progress that
                                      industrialisation has brought to the
                                      production of motor vehicles. In the
                                       building trade, on the other hand,
                                     there has been very little progress …
                                           since Noah built the ark!”
                Dick Dusseldorp
