Global Competitiveness of U.S. Advanced-Technology Manufacturing Industries


Book Description

The analysis presented in this study focuses primarily on the LCA manufacturing industries in the United States and Western Europe. It also includes some discussion of Russia's LCA industry, which is beginning to produce aircraft for export. Although Japan is not a producer of LCA, it is examined in the context of its aeronautical R&D.







Competitive Assessment of the U.S. Large Civil Aircraft Aerostructures Industry


Book Description

"This study was requested by the House Committee on Ways and Means in a letter dated March 8, 2000. The Committee requested that the U.S. International Trade Commission (the Commission) examine the ability of the U.S. civil aerostructures industry to compete over the short and long terms with those industries in Europe, Canada, and to the extent possible, Asia. The Commission's report examines the composition and recent trends of the large civil aircraft (LCA) aerostructures industry; the process of new aerostructures development; the means and trends of government support for research and development; and the relative strengths and weaknesses of the aerostructures industries in these countries and regions, for the period 1995-99 and to the extent possible, 2000"--Publisher description







The Competitive Status of the U.S. Civil Aviation Manufacturing Industry


Book Description

Deregulation, higher costs, foreign competition, and financial risks are causing profound changes in civil aviation. These trends are reviewed along with growing federal involvement in trade, technology transfer, technological developments in airframes and propulsion, and military-civil aviation relationships. Policy options to preserve the strength and effectiveness of civil aircraft manufacturing are offered.
