Book Description
The U.S. Government provides massive, systematic support to the U.S. commercial aircraft industry pursuant to a long-standing U.S. policy of striving to maintain U.S. superiority in all areas of aeronautics technology. One can reasonably estimate that government support to the industry during the past 15 years was in the range of $18-22 billion. The support comes through three principal means: U.S. Defense Dept. R&D; NASA R&D, and the U.S. tax system.
