Thinking on inflation levels... well, which parameters were used to calculate it? I have an example here in Brasil. Official inflation is low, very low when compared with 80´s as example but we know that some prices goes higher than the official numbers. As example light, water, basement, government taxes as well as the "non basic" food items... So there is an official number that is used on some calculations (like my payment!) and the real one we feel every day when paying our bills or buying some items. Maybe this is the same with the aircraft prices. Didn´t Germany industry fought against lack of raw materials? So I guess the pricing of those items went higher and higher as years progressed so it may explain their higher prices. Even being older aircrafts they could have sold them with updated prices based on the actuall costs for new ones.
