The Alliance for Aviation Across America recently commended Martinsburg Mayor George Karos of Martinsburg for proclaiming January “General Aviation Appreciation Month.”
In West Virginia, general aviation contributes over $1 billion to the state’s total economic output annually.
“Mayor Karos’ proclamation helps highlight the economic benefits and valuable service that general aviation provides to the City of Martinsburg and the State of West Virginia,” said Selena Shilad, Executive Director of the Alliance for Aviation Across America. “We sincerely thank the Mayor and the City of Martinsburg for recognizing this vital industry.”
