Title: AIRPORT SYSTEM CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS - BUSINESS AVIATION PERSPECTIVES
Accession Number: 00749959
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: This report presents the business aviation perspective on airport development needs. Business aviation believes that the most effective way of balancing the budget is to have a strong economy, and air transportation contributes significantly to the national economy. A conservative estimate of tax revenues from the economic activity stimulated by aviation is about $30 billion--10 to 15 times the amount of investment that the Federal Government puts into the air transportation system. The air transport system, especially airports, must be sustained and modernized. All components of the air transport system must move forward collectively to solve the problems of air transport growth and development and make sure that we do not end up with a second-rate air transport system as we move into the 21st century.
