Located in the heart of North Carolina, at the center of the East Coast, the
Piedmont Triad International Airport has created more than 25,000 jobs, contributes
$5.8 billion annually to the local economy and has attracted global brands such as
Honda Aircraft Company, HAECO Americas, FedEx Express, and Cessna/Textron. And
with 1,000 acres ready for development, we’re just getting started.
Visit LandatPTI.com to learn why your next big move should be to the Piedmont Triad

Directory takes flight
I’m happy to share our second-annual N.C. Aviation and Aerospace
Directory with you. As you will find out by the number of companies and organizations listed in the pages to come, the industry is huge
in North Carolina and has been for some time. According to a recent report compiled by the North Carolina Department of Transportation’s Division of Aviation, the state’s network of 72 publicly owned airports, and the aviation and aerospace assets that rely on them, have a major
impact on the state’s economy.North Carolina’s public airports annually contribute $52 billion to the
state’s economy, supporting 307,000 jobs that generate $12.6 billion in personal income and $2.2 billion in state and local tax revenues.
Global aerospace players such as Boeing, Cessna, GE Aviation, Honda Aircraft, Lockheed Martin and Spirit AeroSystems call North Carolina home, choosing our state for its connectivity, skilled workforce and business-friendly environment. North Carolina boasts the nation’s second-fastest-growing aerospace manufacturing sector, with strong aerospace maintenance and military aviation enterprises,
14 commercial airline operators and 26 air freight companies. The state is at the forefront of innovations catalyzing the growth of the unmanned aircraft systems economy.
In addition to a listing of companies, you will also find a listing of regional airports across the state and some private ones that are open
to the public. Here’s to our thriving aviation and aerospace industry that keeps North Carolina “First in Flight.”
Finally, I’d like to thank all of our sponsors for this directory. We couldn’t have done it without their support.

GTCC’s commitment to meeting the workforce needs of North Carolina’s aviation industry
began in 1970. Today we have well over 100,000 sq. ft. of classroom and hangar space dedicated
to Aviation & Aerospace programs. Companies like HAECO Americas, Honda Aircraft, Textron, and
large commercial airlines employ our graduates in manufacturing, avionics, aviation systems
technology, aviation management and as pilots.
And our programs are still growing to meet the needs of this ever-expanding industry. So, even with
50 years of success behind us, we feel like we’re just getting off the ground.

The sky’s the limit
North Carolina may be first in flight thanks to the Wright Broth-
ers in 1903, but the state hasn’t slowed down since. The aviation industry continues to grow in the state, with public
airports generating $52 billion in economic impact in 2019. These air-ports employ a whopping 307,000 people who generate $2.2 billion in local and state taxes.
These public airports transport more than 62 million travelers each year. In fact, 94% of the state’s population lives within a 30-minute drive of an airport.
There’s a lot that goes into supporting such a large industry. Ac-
cording to the 2019 State of Aviation report compiled by the Division of Aviation in the N.C. Department of Transportation, North Carolina boasts the second-fastest-growing aerospace-manufacturing sector. For this reason, along for the state’s connectivity, skilled workforce and business-friendly environment, that aerospace giants Boeing, Cessna, GE Aviation, Honda Aircraft, Lockheed Martin and Spirit AeroSystems call North Carolina home.

Aviation’s support industries
In addition to the public and private airports and the aerospace manufacturing and maintenance businesses, there is a large sup-
port industry that drives the state’s economy. This can include rental car agencies, restaurants and businesses located inside air-ports and fuel suppliers.
There are 13 rental car companies that serve the state’s 10 com-
mercial airports. The state further benefits from these companies with an 8% tax on short-term leases and rentals, which contributed $76 million in 2015, according to the Division of Aviation in the N.C. Department of Transportation.
Meanwhile, the 35 shops in Charlotte Douglas International Airport and the 22 shops in the Raleigh-Durham International Airport contrib-
uted $6 million in state tax revenues in 2015.

P erhaps one of the most exciting new areas in the aviation in-
dustry is unmanned aircraft systems or drones, and North Carolina has positioned itself to be a leader in the private and
public use of these machines. At the end of 2018, the state counted more than 26,400 recreation-
al users and 5,000 permitted commercial or government operators, according to the Division of Aviation in the N.C. Department of Trans-
portation. These numbers continue to grow as the popularity and number of uses for drones increases.
Additionally, NCDOT is among 10 teams that the U.S. Department of Transportation to participate in its UAS Integration Pilot Program over the course of three years. NCDOT has used the pilot program to test delivering medical and food packages and in hurricane response during the 2018 season.

YOUR NEXT BIG MOVE
In the Carolina Core, we’re the Core of North Carolina Aerospace. We’re home to a robust aviation cluster with more than 200 companies in the local supply chain.
The Carolina Core is anchored by the megasite at Piedmont Triad International Airport, with more than 1,000 acres of land ready for development, including an 800-acre tract that may be developed in its entirety or in parcels. Additionally, the region hosts aviation-related development opportunities at Smith-Reynolds Airport in Winston-Salem, and is home to several general aviation airports, including Burlington-Alamance Regional and the Raleigh Executive Jetport in Sanford.
Talent is a competitive advantage for the region, with a highly-skilled aerospace workforce and more than 27,000 degrees and credentials awarded annually.
Little wonder many of the industry’s leading companies, including HAECO Americas, Honda Aircraft Company, Collins Interiors, American Airlines and Triumph Group call the region home.
WE ARE THE CAROLINA CORE.
