Year-End Data Tables

Good afternoon and welcome to the Aerospace Industries Association’s Year-End Review and Forecast. This year marks the 47th year-end analysis we’ve presented. I know a lot of hard work goes into making this one of our most popular events of the year, so I want to thank the Communications Council for your great support.

The U.S. aerospace industry booked a relatively strong performance in 2011, remaining one of the most significant contributors to the national economy. Despite persistently sluggish market conditions around the globe, annual sales are expected to top $218 billion in 2011, marking the eighth consecutive year of growth. The industry’s robust workforce also points to the vital role played by aerospace in the U.S. economy.
