2.02.5  Piston engine powered rotorcraft are helicopters powered by a single piston engine that burns avgas. Piston-powered rotorcraft are generally smaller and less expensive to acquire and operate than their turbine-powered cousins and are most commonly flown for instructional or personal purposes.
2.02.6  Turbine engine powered rotorcraft are helicopters powered by one or two turbine engines that burn jet fuel. Aerial observation, law enforcement, and medical evacuation account for much of their usage.
2.02.7  Experimental aircraft generally are home-built or kit aircraft flown by enthusiasts. They have piston or turbine engines but usually have piston engines. This category also includes some vintage aircraft and rebuilt military aircraft of which there are limited working examples.
The following graphs depict sales and flight hours in 2005 by each of the GA aircraft categories. “Rotorcraft” represents both piston-and turbine-powered helicopters, while “Pistons” represent both single-and multi-engine piston-power airplanes.

2.03 The Uses of General Aviation Aircraft
The FAA classifies GA aircraft according to the uses reported by owners. Each use is suggestive of a pattern of expenditures that contributes to other sectors of the U.S. economy based on employment of professional crews, hours flown, insurance rates, and other variables. The majority use for which the aircraft is flown determines how the FAA classifies the use of that aircraft. The uses which the FAA defines are listed below in Table 4.
