The aerospace industry is undoubtedly healthy and growing. Global air traffic for both passenger and freight, according to Airbus’ latest Global Market Forecast, is expected to grow at a rate of 4.6 percent annually from now through 2034.
It’s not surprising, therefore, that state, county and local/municipal Economic Development Organizations (EDOs) have been — and continue to be — very serious in their efforts to attract aerospace manufacturers and top-tier suppliers to their areas. The resulting “brass ring” of locating a large aerospace operation in their community means job growth that can number in the thousands, highly-skilled worker salaries that can rank substantially above the national average, and a jump-start in economic prosperity that can span an entire region.
