The aircraft manufacturing industry\u2019s results for the first\nthree months of 2023 when compared to the same period in 2022, point to\nincreasing aircraft unit deliveries across most aircraft segments while the\noverall value of the aircraft shipments was slightly lower for airplanes but\nincreased for helicopters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe continued health of general aviation manufacturing\nindustry is encouraging, particularly in light of persistent supply chain,\nworkforce and North American regulatory process challenges. Our manufacturers\nare focused on meeting this thriving product demand with new aircraft which\nincorporate advanced technologies that further enhance safety and fuel\nperformance. During this transformative time in aerospace, our manufacturers\ncontinually demonstrate that our sector is the technology incubator for safety\nand sustainability. This message is being emphasized this week at EBACE in\nGeneva and will also be a focus at the Paris Airshow as we counter the\nshort-sighted, irrational attacks directed upon business aviation in Europe.\n&nbsp;In stark contrast, emphasis on our demonstrated record of environmental\nsustainability leadership was very well received on Capitol Hill in early May\nwhen GAMA member company leaders participated in more than 125 meetings with U.S.\nlegislators. Other issues discussed with Senators and Representatives across\nthe political spectrum included the immediate need for a confirmed FAA\nAdministrator, improved training for the young FAA workforce, strengthened\nbilateral engagement and timely passage of an FAA reauthorization bill to\nprovide clear, multi-year direction for the agency,\u201d said Pete Bunce, GAMA\nPresident and CEO.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aircraft shipments through the first quarter of 2023, when\ncompared to the same period in 2022, saw piston airplane deliveries increase\n10.1% with 294 units, turboprop deliveries increase 6.4% with 117 units, and\nbusiness jet deliveries were flat with 117 units. The value of airplane\ndeliveries through the first quarter of 2023 was $3.7 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/image004-4-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25695\" width=\"262\" height=\"131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image004-4-1.jpg 718w, https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image004-4-1-300x151.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Helicopter shipments were robust when compared to the first\nquarter of 2022; piston helicopter deliveries increased 40% with 56 units, and\nturbine helicopter deliveries increased 53% with 153 units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>First Quarter Aircraft Shipments&nbsp;and Billings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<table  class=\"wp-block-table table table-hover\" ><tbody><tr><td>\n  Aircraft\n  Type\n  <\/td><td>\n  2022\n  <\/td><td>\n  2023\n  <\/td><td>\n  %\n  Change\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n  Piston\n  Airplanes\n  <\/td><td>\n  267\n  <\/td><td>\n  294\n  <\/td><td>\n  +10.1%\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n  Turboprops&nbsp;\n  <\/td><td>\n  110\n  <\/td><td>\n  117\n  <\/td><td>\n  +6.4%\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n  Business\n  Jets\n  <\/td><td>\n  118\n  <\/td><td>\n  117\n  <\/td><td>\n  -0.8%\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n  Total\n  Airplanes&nbsp;\n  <\/td><td>\n  495\n  <\/td><td>\n  528\n  <\/td><td>\n  +6.7%\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n  Total\n  Airplane Billings\n  <\/td><td>\n  $3.8B\n  <\/td><td>\n  $3.7B\n  <\/td><td>\n  -3.5%\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n  Piston\n  Helicopters\n  <\/td><td>\n  40\n  <\/td><td>\n  56\n  <\/td><td>\n  +40.0%\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n  Turbine\n  Helicopters\n  <\/td><td>\n  100\n  <\/td><td>\n  153\n  <\/td><td>\n  +53.0%\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n  Total\n  Helicopters&nbsp;\n  <\/td><td>\n  140\n  <\/td><td>\n  209\n  <\/td><td>\n  +49.3%\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n  Total\n  Helicopter Billings\n  <\/td><td>\n  $0.5B\n  <\/td><td>\n  $0.8B\n  <\/td><td>\n  +59.9%\n  <\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n\n\n\n<p>GAMA&#8217;s complete 2023 first quarter report can be found\nat&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/gama.aero\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gama.aero<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) published the First Quarter 2023 General Aviation Aircraft Shipments and Billings Report.
