It is important to remember that GA makes an significant contribution to the economies of smaller or less-populated states that do not appear in the preceding table. Indeed, GA can be disproportionately important in large, sparsely-populated states (such as Alaska) because it offers transportation where few viable alternatives exist. To reflect this aspect of GA’s contribution, we calculated GA’s total economic contribution per resident and summarized the results below. Of course, these data do not reflect GA’s intangible but important improvement to the economic viability and quality of life among dispersed populations in rural areas.

*  Total Economic Contribution is the sum of direct, indirect, and induced contributions. For example, the District of Columbia has a significant contribution due to indirect and induced effects.

Leading States In Terms Of GA Total Economic Contribution Per Capita In 2005
(Including Direct, Indirect, and Induced)


As shown in Table 1, GA’s total contribution to the U.S. economy (measured in terms of gross output) is comprised of direct, indirect, and induced effects. For purposes of this study, GA’s contribution to the economy traces back mainly to two things: the purchase of new GA aircraft, and the operation and maintenance of the entire US-based GA aircraft fleet whether that purpose be recreation, instruction and training of pilots, corporate travel, or medical evacuation. Chart 3 breaks down each type of contribution into its major components:

Obviously, new aircraft deliveries each year represent only a fraction of the total U.S.-based GA aircraft fleet, so it makes sense that GA operations and maintenance (O&M) account for the majority of GA’s contribution to the U.S. economy
