In response, RAND has developed an economic framework to aid in identifying optimal replacement strategies that recognize tradeoffs among costs and explicitly incorporate the effects of age and uncertainty. |

| Publisher Description: An economic framework for identifying cost-effective aircraft replacement strategies. In their discussion of the framework, the authors suggest that age may contribute to higher and less-predictable costs, as may workforce reductions, depot closures, and spare part shortages. |
