Leading recipient industries are depicted below:
Table 5 Top Ten Industries Benefiting from Indirect Contributions of GA in 2005 The industry grouping, or sectors, which are illustrated in this report and used in the I/O model are those identified for analysis by the Bureau of Economic Analysis at the Department of Commerce. It is not surprising that the industries which benefit most from GA are those which are somehow related to either the industry directly or through supplying the GA industry with goods or services. For example, Mining/Extractive supplies the bauxite or iron ore from which aluminum and steel are produced – these products, in turn, are used to produce aircraft airframes and other parts. Financial Institutions provide financing to those who purchase aircraft and also to the services and manufacturers which support GA. Avionics are produced by companies in the Radio, TV, and Communications Equipment industry category and this same grouping produces many of the subcomponents used to build avionics suites. Business Services is a very wide ranging group which includes accounting, janitorial, waste management, marketing, copy shop, information, and IT services which serve not only GA users but also every other industry which receives some portion of GA’s contributions.
