2007 Was Another Record Year (Thankfully) For GA Manufacturers
(Part Three, of Three)
Just this past week, leaders of the General Aviation
Manufacturers Association (GAMA) announced that the 2007 year-end
shipment figures for the general aviation industry have led to
another record high in industry billings. Speaking at GAMA’s
Annual Industry Review and Market Outlook Briefing, GAMA Chairman
and Chairman and CEO of Cirrus Design Corporation, Alan Klapmeier,
reported that a strong worldwide market, especially outside of
North America, was a driving factor for general aviation in
2007.
