it's not apples and oranges. it's an endemic problem that no one give a shit to put an end to. let the free market rule... yada yada yada. i'm all for that shit, but when safety takes a back seat because a bunch of screwball wall street boys want a 200 foot yacht cuz the 100 footer aint good enough; cuz a 1,000,000,000 annual profit is not good enough. they can kiss my ass.
electronics in jets are expensive because we allow them to be. if boeing told "x manufacturer" of the cockpit glass that it was refusing to pay $200,000 for a 13" screen, they would listen. boeing doesn't give a shit cuz they pass the cost on to the airlines, who in turn pass it on to me.
do you think the systems in jets are any better than those used on the ground? i doubt it.
