Statewide Economic Impact
Delaware Airports
With proposed changes to the Aviation Laws before the State Legislature in 1990, the Delaware Department of Transportation contracted with R.A. Wiedemann & Associates to produce a statewide study of the economic impacts of aviation in Delaware.
With numerous updates tracking the growth of aviation economic activity, information from these studies have been used to support efforts to gain airline service within the State, protect general aviation airports, and publicize the very large contribution of jobs to the overall economy.
The studies have been received favorably by both the government officials and the general public.
