Aerospace Industries Association: Solid 2010 Results for Aerospace, Aerospace Industries Association
“With another solid financial performance in 2010, the aerospace industry has again demonstrated its vital importance to the U.S. economy. “Aerospace has produced solid results, including a new sales record for the seventh straight year, leading all manufacturers in trade surplus and providing a sense of stability amidst the chaos of economic upheaval,” said AIA President and CEO Marion C. Blakey. In her remarks to more than 300 members of the news media, government and industry at the association’s 46th annual Year-end Review and Forecast Luncheon, Blakey cited a preliminary total aerospace sales figure of $216.5 billion.”
