This study was a two-year collaborative eflort between the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) Aeronautics Division, the Federal Aviation Administration, Wilbur Smith and Associates and Morrison Maierle Inc. The enclosed study is an effort to break down aviation's significant contributions in Montana and show how these impacts affect economies on a statewide and local level. Depending on your location, you may also find enclosed several copies of an individual economic summary specific to your airport. Results ofthe study clearly show that Montana's 120 public use airports are a major catalyst to our economy. Montana enplanes over 1.5 million prissengers per year at our 15 commercial service airports, half of whom are visiting tourists. The economic value of aviation is over $1.56 billion and contributes nearly 4.5 percent to our total gross state product. There arc 18,759 aviation dependent positions in Montana, accounting for four percent of the total workforce and $600 million in wages. In addition to the economic benefits, the study also highlights how Montana residents increasingly depend on aviation to support their healtþ welfare, and safety. Montana airports support critical services for medical care, agriculture, recreation, emergency access, law enforcement, and fire fighting.

  • Montana Airports 2016 Economic Impact Study
    MONTANA AIRPORTS Y D TU T S AC MP 2016 C I OMI ECON Introduction Montana’s airports play an integral role in our transportation system by providing access to destinations within the state, throughout the country, and across the globe. Airports also offer significant economic benefits to our communities by supporting jobs; generating payroll; paying taxes; and triggering spending at local, regional, and state levels. The importance of airports goes beyond transportation and economics. Airports offer access, services, and other valuable attributes for Montanans that cannot always be easily measured in dollars and cents. Residents and visitors use airports for leisure and business travel, and airports serve as the base for a wide range of critical activities such as wildland firefighting, search and rescue operations, and training for future aviators. Airports are the starting point for aircraft that conduct utility inspections, provide medical evacuation services, and transport staff and executives for business activity. This Economic Impact Study analyzed the contributions of Montana’s airports to determine the benefits that airports provide throughout the state. This study updated the previous analysis conducted in 2007 and 2008. CLASSIFICATION OF AIRPORTS Commercial General Aviation Service Airports Airports MONTANA 1 AIRPORTS 2016 Economic Impact Study Methodology To better understand the value of Montana’s airports from the perspective of both economics and community benefits, the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) conducted a comprehensive study of the state’s aviation facilities. The study analyzed the contributions of Montana’s airports, including aviation- and non-aviation-related businesses, visitor spending, capital expenditures on construction, and additional spin-off (or “multiplier”) effects.
