Abstract:

This report presents the results and a description of the 1979 General Aviation Activity and Avionics Survey. The survey was conducted during 1980 by the FAA to obtain information on the activity and avionics of the United States registered general aviation aircraft fleet, the dominant component of civil aviation in the U.S. The survey was based on a statistically selected sample of about 14.2 percent of the general aviation fleet and obtained a response rate of 71 percent. Survey results are based upon responses but are expanded upward to represent the total population. Survey results revealed that during 1979 an estimated 43.3 million hours of flying time were logged by the 210,339 active general aviation aircraft in the U.S. fleet, yielding a mean annual flight time per aircraft of 203.5 hours. The active aircraft represented about 85 percent of the registered general aviation fleet. The report contains breakdowns of these and other statistics by manufacturer/model group, aircraft type, state, and region of based aircraft, and primary use. Also included are fuel consumption, lifetime airframe hours, avionics, and enginer hours estimates.
