Governor Greg Abbott Declares November 'Aviation Appreciation Month'

Supports More Than $14.5 Billion In Economic Activity In TX

The Alliance for Aviation Across America today applauded Governor Greg Abbott for declaring November 2016 “Aviation Appreciation Month.” In Texas, general aviation activities support an annual economic impact of over $14.5 billion.

“Texas’ geography makes general aviation and local airports critical for businesses and communities to have access to important services to far-off markets, medical care, and other critical services,” said Selena Shilad, Executive Director of the Alliance for Aviation Across America. "We thank the Governor for issuing the proclamation and look forward to working with him in the future."

According to the proclamation:

"The Texas aviation industry is critical to our economy and way of life. It brings families together; transports business executives to important meetings; delivers essential cargo; provides life-saving medical evacuation, police search and rescue, utility grid and oil pipeline inspections and border protection; and it helps to control pests that can wreak havoc on farmers' crops."
