From National Business Aviation Association:

“Business aviation is defined as the use of a general aviation airplane for a business purpose. It is essential to 12,000 companies of all types and sizes in the U.S. that are trying to compete in a marketplace that demands speed, flexibility, efficiency and productivity. The vast majority of these companies - 85% - are small and mid-size businesses, many of which are based in the dozens of markets across the country where the airlines have reduced or eliminated service.”
