Case Analysis – Aircraft Performance

Format

• – Two to three pages text (maximum, include a reference page; and a title page)
• – Double-spaced lines
• – Times New Roman 12 pitch Process

1. Review materials from outside sources regarding the case
2. Diagnose the case (identify the issue/problem, define the significance of the issue/problem)
3. “Size-up” the case (determine the influence of the issue/problem, decide what was done well, and identify what could be improved)
4. Provide recommendations (identify courses of action; what would you do differently?)

Develop a case analysis on this topic: Evaluate the challenges and opportunities in the aircraft manufacturing industry following World War II as commercial and military aircraft evolved from piston-engine to high- performance, jet aircraft. In your analysis, consider factors that influenced the aircraft manufacturing industry with respect to designs, performance, materials, development, and production of new, high-performance jet aircraft. As always, draw upon module knowledge to help you conduct your analysis.
