The Kingdom of Thailand represents a unique opportunity for Cessna. Until recently, Single-Engine Commercial Operations were not permitted in Thailand, but the Department of Aviation has just dropped this restriction. Previously, it was also very difficult for private airc
raft to fly within the Kingdom, but now this rule has also been relaxed and General Aviation is starting to grow very quickly. Thailand is beginning to see the enormous potential for small aircraft in developing their Tourism Industry. Many tourists wish to travel by private charter aircraft at reasonable prices. Previously, only very expensive twin-engine turboprops and airliners were available to transport tourists. Thailand is also discovering the advantage of small airports with "Unicom" or uncontrolled "self-reporting" tower procedures that save costs and maintain aviation safety. In addition, ground schools in Thailand which used to cost over $1,000 per person are now becoming more affordable. This will increase the number of private pilots in the country and boost the aviation industry as well as provide a stream of young pilots to the growing airline and air charter businesses. The General Aviation industry is growing in Thailand.
