Factors Affecting the Growth of the General Aviation Industry:

• Rise in Private Flying:

The rise in private aviation continues to be remarkable based on the continued preference for more personal, customized travel. High net-worth individuals, corporate executives and leisure travelers are now chartering flights or using private jets instead of flying commercial to eliminate the burdens of commercial airline restrictions. It is primarily being motivated by convenience, fewer interruptions when traveling to destination, and safety. The trend is evolving general aviation where demand for expansion and service has many operators in general aviation expanding their fleet and services - now aviation manufacturers are designing smaller, high-performing jets to satisfy this market segment that is propelling the adoption of private flying with greater efficiency and improved quality.

• Expansion of Regional Air Mobility: 

General aviation is emerging as an important tool for increasing regional connectivity, particularly in areas that are underserved or remote. Infrastructure improvements and upgraded airstrips mean small aircraft are providing faster and more efficient services between smaller cities and towns. This not only helps support local economies and boost travel and tourism, but it also provides needed services like medical evacuation and cargo transportation. Governments and private entities are investing in air mobility networks that will allow general aviation to fill gaps where commercial carriers are unable to fill. As logistics and passenger transport grow, regional air mobility will continue to remain a pillar of growth in the market for the foreseeable future. 

•  Integration of Advanced Technologies: 

Technology is changing the face of general aviation, improving safety and efficiency for everyone. Avionics upgrades such as autopilot systems and digital flight management systems are being installed into more new aircraft and into retrofitted older aircraft. While technology reduces the workload for pilots, improves accuracy, and reduces operating risks, electric propulsion and hybrids are also entering the market. Those solutions will help lower emissions and operating costs. They will make general aviation more attainable and sustainable in the future. R&D continues on these new technologies as they gain traction with a wider audience, from recreational pilots to business individuals.
