NBAA CONDEMNS DISREGARD FOR BUSINESS AVIATION'S SUSTAINABILITY LEADERSHIP

NBAA Exposes Misleading Study Dismissing BA’s Sustainability Leadership while Defending Business Aviation’s Environmental Commitment and Economic Importance

THE NATIONAL BUSINESS AVIATION ASSOCIATION (NBAA) has forcefully challenged a DC-based think tank’s study for promoting a misleading caricature of business aviation that ignores the sector’s sustainability leadership and the industry’s essential role in the nation’s economy and transportation system.

The report, released by the partisan, Washington, DC-based Institute for Policy Studies, omits key information about the game-changing innovations that continually lower the carbon footprint for business aviation, and overlooks independent survey data that provides a true representation of the industry as one comprised mostly of small and mid-size companies, flying largely to communities lacking airline service, typically with mid-level employees aboard.
