The Aerospace Economic Impact Study

Introduction

San Antonio’s aerospace industry includes a range of businesses that manufacture aircraft parts and equipment, service and repair aircraft, produce and distribute transportation equipment and supplies, and provide air transportation. These activities can be classified in two major sectors: Service/Manufacturing and Transportation.

The following sets out the significant conclusions of that study.
