Market Trends of Aircraft Mounts Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Aircraft Mounts Market according to our research experts:
The Exterior Mount is Expected to Witness Significant Growth During the Forecast Period
By mount type, the exterior mount is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period. External mounts are mostly used in commercial as well as general aviation to improve the passenger cabin storage capacity, as well as seating constructions. In addition to pedestal mounts, other options for external mounting include multiplane, shock, platform, and sandwich mounts. The bulk of external mounts in the commercial market is installed due to the increased availability in terms of modern cabin storage and passenger comfort. Over the next few years, the aviation industry is expected to witness significant growth owing to increased safety measures for the most crucial parts of an aircraft. As external mounts do not require high maintenance as compared to internal mounts, thus the maintenance and repair of external mounts are much less as compared to internal mounts. Moreover, growth in the number of commercial aircraft owing to a rise in aviation passenger traffic will also lead to a growth in the demand for a number of external mounts for aircraft and this will lead to the market witnessing growth during the forecast.
The North American Region is Expected to Witness Significant Growth During the Forecast Period
The North American region is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period. The increase in the number of aviation operations, increased aircraft deliveries in the region as well as increased air passenger traffic numbers will be the main reason for the growth of the market during the forecast period. On the other hand, a well-established aviation industry and increasing low-cost air travel, and the presence of various airline service providers in the area will lead to growth in the market. According to the data released by the United States Department of Transportation, in February 2022, network carriers reported 519,952 scheduled domestic flights, and of those 23,421 which accounts for 4.5 % were canceled. On the other hand, in February 2021, the same airlines reported 350,170 scheduled domestic flights and 20,201 flights that were canceled. In addition, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, airline carriers in the United States carried 46.3 million scheduled service passengers in January 2022 which was more by 33.2% than January 2021.
The United States, in the present scenario, is also witnessing an increase in the number of aircraft deliveries owing to the decline of the COVID-19 pandemic in the country. Aircraft OEM Boeing, in 2022 announced that they are in plans to ramp up their production and deliveries of new aircraft. Although supply chain problems, as well as labor problems that occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic, led to hampering the delivery of aircraft, Boeing now in plans to increase their production process and deliver between 400-450 737 aircraft in the next year. This prediction by Boeing is more than the current 375 aircraft which were delivered in 2022 by Boeing. Thus, the increase in the number of aircraft deliveries will lead to an increase in the demand for aircraft mounts and this will lead to a growth of the market during the forecast period.
