WASHINGTON, DC — The General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) announced second quarter shipment and billings figures continue at a record-setting pace totaling $12.1 billion, a 24.1 percent increase in the first half of 2008.
“Shipments in the business jet and turboprop segments continue to rise steadily,” said GAMA President and CEO, Pete Bunce. “Expanding worldwide markets are having a very positive affect on the turbine segments of our industry.”
Bunce added, “Despite uncertainty with fuel prices and strength of the North American economy, the energy surrounding the entire spectrum of general aviation remains robust.”
