Commercial Aviation is expected to witness highest growth during the forecast period
- France is one of the largest and most important aviation markets in Europe in terms of traffic due to its size and geographic location and the presence of some of the industry’s flagships, such as Air France and Airbus.
- In terms of deliveries, 18 aircraft were procured in the commercial aviation segment, while seven business jets and 45 helicopters were procured in the general aviation segment in 2022, an 18% decline for commercial aviation and a 7% rise for general aviation from 2021. The French aerospace industry is experiencing a significant shift in technology due to the current market uncertainty and the French government's aerospace assistance plan, which is driving the growth of this sector in France.
- The military aviation sector has benefitted due to the increasing government investment in R&D and the procurement of advanced fighter jets, helicopters, and transport and training aircraft from the local players. Though the deliveries have been affected by a halt in production and lockdowns, this segment remained positive.
- The general aviation market in France could expand during the forecast period due to an increasing emphasis on improving the infrastructure of private airports and the increasing number of HNWIs in the country. During the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, there was a decline in business jet deliveries. However, the piston fixed-wing, turboprop, and helicopter segments remained strong in terms of aircraft deliveries. In 2022, all these segments exceeded the pre-pandemic deliveries.
