On the other hand, all the conventional wisdom 10 years ago was it was impossible to start an airplane company.

The last new commercial airplane company before boom, 1921 Douglas Aircraft, it had been a century.

There are all these reasons why it's capital intensive, takes a while, highly regulated, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

There are all these reasons.

Theoretically, it's hard.

For whatever reason, we were just crazy and have to go do it anyway.

Then we got far enough along that I don't think it makes any sense for someone to start another company right now to compete with us.

Okay, boom's 10 years ahead.

and counting.

So unless you've got a very different idea about how to go about this, it doesn't make sense to compete with us.

On the other hand, we did just get supersonic flight legalized.

So that opens up, when you can't fly supersonic over CONUS, there is basically no market for a supersonic private jet, but now that you can, there is.

So I will be disappointed if nobody else does that.

If nobody else does, we will, because it should exist.

But my hope is somebody else gets there before we do.

Yeah.

Well, the president opened the doors to that by legalizing supersonic flight over land.

That market is wide open.

I don't know anybody with a Gulfstream that wouldn't want to upgrade.

Somebody should do that.
