a pretty good spot and that means good things for
maintenance as well, " he said.
Hoggarth is anticipating a slow ease off of the
supply chain issues and a return to " whatever the
new normal is. "
" Big growth happened during the pandemic in
our industry. A lot of big growth. And there's a lot
of new owners to the market too. There's people
that never expected to have a corporate jet before
and suddenly it's justifiable, because it just makes
sense all of a sudden, " Hoggarth said.
Prior to 2023, Parrish said Elliott Aviation was
already beginning to see strong signs of recovery,
with their shops and others around them full.
" The demand is definitely here. Many of the
Most agree 2023
will see the same
amount of business
as 2022. Whether it
will grow or not is
what's up for debate.

'We want our aircraft painted. We want our interior
done, or a few things to the interior.' Maintenance,
same thing. Just plan ahead. It helps us out. It helps

Final Predictions for the Year Ahead
Jensen is forecasting a good year ahead, but not one
without struggles.
" We'll all see what the economy does, but I think
business aviation has really gotten itself to a point
where people recognize the value there. I don't think
that's going to go away. I think some of the stigma
that may have been there before in previous years

think that it's an asset to everyone and to all businesses
that are trying to grow. So I think we're in
discretionary spend dollars, as we like to say, for
paint and interior and avionics upgrades that are
not mandatory, are still being spent. So the owners
and companies are still spending the money
for the airplanes to keep them current, and keep
them operational, which is a definite good sign for
the industry, " Parrish continued.
Others are less optimistic, forecasting a plateau
and continuing struggles for some time into 2023.
" We're seeing a year-on-year inflationary trend in
parts and labor affecting the cost of maintenance.
We're also still seeing the backlog of shop availability
and turn times, which we expect will remain a
challenge in the near future, " Zozaya said, adding,
" 2021 and 2022 showed historic growth in utilization,
but we expect this trend to plateau in the first
half of 2023. "
Arnoni agreed with Zozaya's assessment of a plateauing
year, but given the ongoing struggles facing
the industry, keeping up with that work might prove
to be the challenge.
" Well, economically, I think that we are going to
