Hello, AVT 422:
The blog topic for this week (April 3) is:
Aviation Business Models
Most aviation companies are facing the growing challenge of adapting to a changing market and uncertain economic times. Aviation businesses face numerous challenges that range from regulations, to security, to unpredictable fuel costs. For this week’s blog, address the following issues.
- What is the rationale behind the cliché, “How do you make a small fortune in aviation? Start with a very large fortune.” What are your thoughts on how this catchy little phrase came about, and why is this phrase increasingly relevant? Use pertinent information from aviation business plans, and examples of failed or struggling aviation business to address this question.
- Given the negative nature of question #1, identify some positive business strategies that upstart aviation business may employ. Identify some successful companies in your discussion. Why are these companies successful?
