U.S. CIVIL AIRMEN STATISTICS: CALENDAR YEAR 1988

This report furnishes detailed airmen statistics. It contains calendar year statistics on pilots and nonpilots and number of certificates issued. The U.S. Civil Airmen Statistics is an annual study published to meet the demands of FAA, other government agencies, and industry for more detailed airmen statistics than those published in other FAA reports. Statistics pertaining to airmen, both pilot and nonpilot, were obtained from the official airmen certification records maintained at the FAA Aeronautical Center, Oklahome City, Oklahoma. An active Airmen is one who holds both an airmen certificate and a valid medical certificate. Airmen who must have a valid medical to exercise the privileges of their certificate are all airplane pilots. Glider, flight navigators, and lighter-than-air pilots are not required to have a medical examination but the numbers represent only those who had a valid medical certificate. Mechanics, parachute riggers, ground instructors, and dispatchers certificates represent all certificates on record at the Aeronautical Center.
