i think and then we only had a five percent sponsored the city's portion of that this this ties in the whole need for hangar space there's a nationwide hangar shortage at most airports a lot of airports are landlocked they don't have any room for development we're a prime opportunity for development with the the old golf course beside us if we need to carve into that, which we did for this project and the taxi lane project two years ago.
Tom DavisHOST

So there was 88% of the 3,247 Nippius airports, which are the national integrated plans of airport systems are classified as non-primary GA facilities.
Tom DavisHOST
17:17
And these airports serve as primary storage grounds for the flight general aviation aircraft and the lack of space has created, in some cases, literally years-long waits to get into a hangar.
Tom DavisHOST
17:29
We have a considerably wait list in Bartlesville to get into a hangar.

Honeywell's Business Aviation Forecast and the Structural Case for Continued Growth

Oct 21 · 4 Mentions

TowerHOST
9:21
A broader, more diverse operator population is less vulnerable to any single company or sector pulling back.
TowerHOST
9:27
All of that matters to the general aviation community broadly, not just the people scheduling missions in a Gulfstream.
TowerHOST
9:33
Let me make those connections explicit.
TowerHOST
9:35
The career pipeline runs directly from general aviation through business aviation.
TowerHOST
9:40
Student pilot to certified flight instructor to part 135 charter to a corporate flight department is a common and well-worn path.
TowerHOST
9:46
When business aviation is healthy and growing, it pulls talent through the pipeline.
TowerHOST
10:25
The avionics ecosystem flows the same direction.
TowerHOST
10:28
Systems developed for business jets share technology routes with what eventually becomes available for certified singles and twins.
Alicia HerronHOST
3:28
So tell us about that, Jay.
Jay WilesHOST
3:30
So yeah, Falcon Field, you know, it's one of the busiest GA airports in the country with hundreds of thousands of operations every year.
Jay WilesHOST
3:36
The Phoenix area is already huge in the GA world.
Alicia HerronHOST
3:39
Mm-hmm.
Jay WilesHOST
3:39
It's a super busy flight training airport.
Jay WilesHOST
7:42
To cover the cost of runway and taxiway maintenance, you're all but guaranteed to have landing fees when you adopt this kind of structure.
Alicia HerronHOST
7:50
Right.
Jay WilesHOST
7:51
Because how else are you gonna charge a fee to someone on a runway or a taxiway? So there are still a lot of concerns about this, and it's an issue that we're gonna be staying on top of, and it's one that we're highlighting, you know, as, as a, a, as a significant challenge, uh, 'cause it's such a busy GA airport.
Ryan HaderGUEST
12:34
I mean, we've touched on costs a little bit.
Ryan HaderGUEST
12:37
And the one thing that in the costs are, I would say, having a bit of an impact on our general aviation industry.
Ryan HaderGUEST
12:47
And that your basic GA aircraft owner for 23, you know, Cessna 172s of the world, you're not going to spend $200,000 on putting in a coffee cup holder.
Ryan HaderGUEST
12:59
I don't think anyone would, but you see the point.
Ryan HaderGUEST
13:03
But it's kind of affecting that industry, I would say, almost negatively, because the reality is that just because it's a general aviation aircraft does not mean that your STC process is any different.
Ryan HaderGUEST
13:20
it isn't unfortunately some of the far 23 requirements are a little lighter they're not as heavy of an aircraft you're not flying as fast you're generally not flying as high there so there are some you know differences that do do make the process a little lighter not necessarily simpler but lighter and potentially not as much work.
Ryan HaderGUEST
13:42
So it does reduce the cost a little bit on some of your GA items.
Ryan HaderGUEST
13:46
However, the process is, again, is still the same, but your first step would be to basically work with an entity like ourselves.

Electronic flight display, EFD.
speaker_1NARRATOR
59:43
Advances in digital displays and solid-state electronic components have been introduced into the flight decks of general aviation, GA, aircraft.
speaker_1NARRATOR
59:56
In addition to the improvement in system reliability, which increases overall safety, electronic flight displays, EFD, have decreased the overall cost of equipping aircraft with state-of-the-art instrumentation.
speaker_1NARRATOR
60:15
Primary electronic instrumentation packages are less prone to failure than their analog counterparts.

An AFM contains the operating procedures and limitations of that aircraft.
speaker_2NARRATOR
119:17
Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, 14 CFR, Part 91 requires that pilots comply with the operating limitations specified in the approved flight manuals, markings, and placards.
speaker_2NARRATOR
119:31
Originally, flight manuals followed whatever format and content the manufacturer felt was appropriate, but this changed with the acceptance of Specification No. 1 prepared by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association, GAMA.
speaker_2NARRATOR
119:47
Specification No. 1 established a standardized format for all general aviation airplane and helicopter flight manuals.
EmmetHOST
3:18
The Scandinavian jet was parked at a gate on the east side of the airport.
EmmetHOST
3:22
Across the runway, at the General Aviation apron, was the Cessna Citation jet.
EmmetHOST
3:26
It was brand new, having just been registered the previous month.
EmmetHOST
3:30
The pilots had just landed at Lunate a few minutes earlier, and were due to take two passengers from Milan to Paris.

The Boeing Seven Thirty-Seven MAX Ten, the Long Road Back From Grounding, and What an FAA Certification Decision Next Week Means for Airlines and the Industry

Oct 17 · 1 Mention

TowerHOST
10:36
The aircraft will be watched closely.
TowerHOST
10:38
For the GA pilot community, the MAX 10 certification is primarily a news story about the commercial aviation industry.
TowerHOST
10:45
But there is a thread that connects to every aviator listening.
TowerHOST
10:49
The certification standards that govern commercial transport aircraft, the culture of safety documentation, the role of the FAA as the final word on airworthiness, these things shape the entire aviation ecosystem.

Italy's Air Traffic Network Failure and What Cascading ATC Disruptions Mean for Pilots Flying European Airspace

Oct 17 · 1 Mention

TowerHOST
2:35
Airlines start swapping aircraft, rerouting crews, burning contingency fuel reserves, and making hard calls about whether some flights are worth operating at all.
TowerHOST
2:43
For general aviation and business aviation operators, the picture is different but not simpler.
TowerHOST
2:49
The GA community flying across Europe depends on the same network.
TowerHOST
2:53
File and instrument flight rules, flight plan into or through Italian airspace on a day like October 16th, and you are navigating a dynamic system that is changing faster than any pre-departure brief can fully anticipate.
TowerHOST
3:05
The practical advice there is to check network managers' flight plan filing system and the NOTAMs not just at departure time but continuously because slot times and route restrictions were being updated throughout the day.

FAA Grounds Pattern Work at Centennial Airport near Denver

Oct 16 · 4 Mentions

TowerHOST
4:53
There are a handful of scenarios that could explain an action like this.
TowerHOST
4:56
Noise complaints from the surrounding community have driven operational restrictions at GA airports before.
TowerHOST
5:02
San Jose, Santa Monica, Van Nuys.
TowerHOST
5:05
It's a pattern that pilots are unfortunately familiar with.
TowerHOST
6:13
There is a broader context worth putting this in.
TowerHOST
6:16
General aviation airports near major metropolitan areas have been under pressure for a long time.
TowerHOST
6:23
The combination of urban expansion, noise sensitivity in newer residential development built near existing airports, and frankly, the lower political visibility of general aviation compared to commercial aviation means that GA airports often lose these fights quietly.
TowerHOST
6:39
Pilots show up one day to find the pattern restricted or the tower hours shortened or instrument approaches removed from the chart.

The Airbus A350 Production Push, the Long-Haul Demand Gap That Opened When Boeing Stumbled, and What It Actually Takes to Scale Up a Wide-Body Assembly Line

Oct 15 · 1 Mention

TowerHOST
6:20
The same supply chain pressures that affect wide-body production affect the entire aerospace ecosystem.
TowerHOST
6:27
The titanium, aluminum, and advanced composite materials that go into a commercial airliner are also used in general aviation components.
TowerHOST
6:35
The precision manufacturing workforce that builds to airline tolerances is the same workforce that supports GA manufacturing.
TowerHOST
6:43
When the commercial side of aviation is capacity constrained, it creates competitive pressure for materials and labor that can show up as longer lead times and higher costs across the board.
TowerHOST
6:53
There's also the regulatory side.
