The largest single component of a typical transport's purchase price is
Answer: D
Correct answer: Airframe labour and materials
Airframe labour and materials form the largest single element of a transport's purchase price - the structure is the bulk of the aircraft by weight and the manufacturer's own value added, involving very large numbers of parts, fasteners and assembly hours.
Engines are a comparable and sometimes larger item but are usually bought in rather than counted as airframe cost. Avionics and interior furnishing are significant but smaller, and flight test, though expensive in absolute terms, is a development cost amortised across the whole run rather than charged to each aircraft.
