Abstract
A strong relationship exists between South Carolina’s economy and aviation. In today’s global market place, the state’s system of commercial service and general aviation airports is essential. South Carolina’s diversified system of airports helps to both lead and sustain growth and economic diversification. Airports in South Carolina support the state’s economy, and are themselves economic generators. In doing so, residents, businesses, and the state’s visitors also rely on the airport system for health, welfare, and safety needs. Further, South Carolina’s military airfields are also important to our national security. The Department of Commerce, through its Aeronautics Office, commissioned this economic impact study to quantify the economic impacts, qualitative benefits, and tax revenues attributable to South Carolina’ airports and military airfields.
