The Market
The general aviation market has continued to grow at a consistent rate over the last few years and Forecast International has projected that manufacturers of general aviation and utility aircraft will turn nearly 27,140 aircraft into almost $22.55 billion from the period 2007 – 2016. Currently in the UK we have 21,331*UK registered aircraft, 32,000 registered PPL Licence holders and over 300 flying clubs and schools.and this is set to grow year on year.
General Aviation is an affluent market for ratings across the board and with many people looking towards their Commercial Pilots Licence they use this sector as their first step to the ultimate goal.
The acquisition of Business Jets and Very Light Jets is set to grow by 27% between 2008 – 2025 and the owners of these aircraft will need pilots to fly them.
