At an advocacy event hosted by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association at Cincinnati’s Lunken Airport, business aviation leaders and state policymakers highlight the value of all general aviation, including business aviation, in the Buckeye State. Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-2-OH) reminds viewers: "General aviation creates jobs - jobs throughout our district, our state and our country. That station also reported that general aviation is Ohio's biggest employer, supporting 8,000 jobs, and $5.5 billion for the state's economy each year, and that every two seconds, an Ohio-made engine lifts a plane in the air."
