General Aviation

General aviation commonly refers to that part of the aviation industry that engages in activity other than scheduled commercial airline activity. This may include charter operators, aeromedical operators, agricultural aviation businesses, aviation-based fire-fighting services, training and aerial work such as aerial photography and surveying. It also includes private, business, recreational and sports aviation activity and supporting businesses such as maintenance providers.

In September 2006, the previous Government established an Industry Action Agenda for the general aviation industry.

The primary purpose of Action Agendas has been to promote industry leadership, help industries develop strategies for growth, agree on priorities and make commitments to change.

The process has been driven by a Strategic Industry Leaders Group. The group is scheduled to report its findings to Government by April 2008.
