On Tuesday the Alliance for Aviation across America applauded Governor Pete Ricketts for declaring May as ‘General Aviation Month,’ after general aviation contributed over $1.2 billion in Nebraska to the state’s total economic output.
AAAA said, “General aviation is an important lifeline to communities throughout the state of Nebraska, during times of natural disasters, like the terrible flooding that happened recently, general aviation can play an important role in transporting people and supplies.
We appreciate the Governor’s proclamation, which helps to highlight general aviation and the value it brings to Nebraska.”
AAAA officials said that general aviation is very important to a lot of businesses in Nebraska that use it for aircraft and local airports to increase the productivity.
