The increase in cost and time for the development of an aircraft is a fact in most of the aircraft production programs performed to date. This paper will demonstrate the various reasons for the increases and how to plan an aircraft development program to avoid them. Therefore, possibilities for program execution in terms of adapted program philosophy and management aspects are shown as well as the contractual and economic environment. Further, the tools available for the planning and control of program execution on the basis of the chosen program philisophy are presented. In normal development programs the increase in cost and time comes not from technical problems and risks, but result from contractual, economic, and management decisions which are set by the customer and the contractor even before the initiation of an aircraft development program.
