KEY: P = preliminary.
a 14 CFR 135, scheduled
operations. Before Mar. 20, 1997, 14
CFR applied to aircraft with 30 or fewer seats. Since Mar. 20, 1997, 14 CFR 135 includes
only aircraft with fewer than 10 seats.
This change makes it difficult to compare pre-1997 data with more
recent years' data.
b Includes instructional
flights performing turns and agricultural flights for spraying and buzzing
(repeated passes over a particular location).
