• Abstract:
  To examine and quantify the benefits of the entire aviation system to California, the California
  
  Department of Transportation (Department) Division of Aeronautics retained Economics Research
  
  Associates (ERA) in association with JD Franz Research, Incorporated. This report, prepared by ERA
  
  with assistance from JD Franz and Aeronautics staff, verifies the importance of aviation in this state
  
  by describing the state’s system of public use airports and commercial space industry, reviewing the
  
  most significant recent trends in aviation, providing an estimate of the overall impact of aviation on
  
  the state’s economy, and reviewing the many ways aviation contributes to life in California.
  
  California has 250 public use airports that range from limited use landing strips to international gate-ways like Los Angeles International (LAX) and San Francisco International (SFO). These airports are
  
  categorized as commercial (scheduled passenger) service or general aviation airports. The state’s 29
  
  commercial service airports are further divided into large hubs, medium hubs, small hubs and
  
  nonhubs, and the 221 general aviation airports are classified as metropolitan, regional, community,
  
  or limited use.
