Abstract:U.S. Aerospace and Aviation Industry: A State-by-State Analysis measures the economic importance of the U.S. civilian and commercial aerospace and aviation industry. Employment statistics show that the industry added jobs every year between 1996 and 1999. However, aerospace and aviation industry employment began to shrink in 2000, losing some 26,000 jobs between 1999 and 2001. The first section of the report provides an overview of the key findings from a national and state perspective. The second section consists of aerospace and aviation industry profiles for the United States and each state, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. The next section gives detailed appendices providing statistical data since 1996. Aerospace and aviation industry segment data and state rankings also are provided. Finally, the report includes findings for the 10 leading metropolitan areas. The statistics used in this report are based on the most recently available U.S. government data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The aerospace and aviation industry definition used to generate the metrics in this report include: aircraft and parts manufacturing; guided missiles and space vehicles; search, detection, and navigation; and air transportation. Other industry segments covered are satellite communications and space research and technology. Civilians working for NASA and its space and research centers such as Ames Research Center in California, Glenn Research Center in Ohio, and the Kennedy Space Center in Florida are included in this analysis under space research and technology. The data contained in this report represent core aerospace and aviation industry employment, wages, payroll, and establishments. Only those industries that directly create aerospace and aviation products and services are captured in this study. It does not include the hundreds of thousands of indirect jobs that exist to support the aerospace and aviation industry.
