There's been a couple of threads about how the economic crisis is affecting builders. My job (gov't) is very secure, but what's concerned me is how the crisis will affect some of our beloved vendors. As more experimental builders put their projects on hold, vendors of stuff like experimental avionics, interiors, tools and other stuff specific to our industry may really suffer. I would really hate to see any of them have to close-up shop.
What do people think... will the economic problems lead to significant numbers of our vendors closing-down, shrinking the industry that surrounds homebuilt aviation?
