Our product development across the spectrum of fixed wing,\nrotorcraft and Advanced Air Mobility vehicles is spurred by the recognition\nthat our industry is the safety and sustainability technology incubator for\nglobal civil aviation. These safety, performance and sustainability efforts are\nbuilt upon progress with lighter weight materials, new structural and wing\ndesigns, fly-by-wire control replacing heavy hydraulic systems, additive\nmanufacturing reducing the number of parts, lighter weight and more reliable\navionics, and engines and airframes that can fly on a 100% sustainable aviation\nfuel blend. Of course, the impressive list of progress doesn\u2019t even begin to\ntouch on the revolution of electric, hybrid and hydrogen propulsion our companies\nare developing. As we look towards FAA reauthorization in the U.S., we will be\nlooking for Congress to focus the FAA on improving their processes to\nfacilitate the certification of new technologies as well as support their\nvalidation efforts globally to deliver safety, performance and sustainability\nbenefits,\u201d said Pete Bunce, GAMA President and CEO. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airplane shipments in 2022, when compared to 2021, saw\npiston airplane deliveries increase 8.2%, with 1,524 units; turboprop airplane\ndeliveries increase 10.4%, with 582 units; and business jet deliveries increase\nto 712 units from 710.
