GENERAL AVIATION
... about small planes, but it's not a small industry

general aviation General Aviation may be all about small air planes but it's not a small industry.

Private aviation is a business category that encompasses that part of the air transportation system outside of the airlines and the military.

It is an important part of the US economy that supports 1.3 million jobs and contributes over $102 billion in economic activity.

The industry is densely populated with family-owned businesses, across the broad spectrum of products and services - from owning airplanes used for business and recreational flying to Fixed Base Operators (FBOs) that service the airplanes at the 20,000 airports across the United States.

Because the aviation industry is such an important part of our national economy, we decided to highlight some of the many facets of the Private Aviation industry.
