RAA Unveils 2013 Annual Report
It's no surprise that this year's Annual Report cover features just a small sampling of the dedicated 50,000 regional airline employees doing their jobs at their respective airlines. The reason? Thanks to this dedicated and passionate workforce, regional airlines have adapted during these recent dynamic times--highlighted by mergers, restructuring and ownership changes--and still fly nearly 50% of all scheduled flights across the nation. 

You can find everything you need to know about the growing RAA airline and associate membership--including industry statistics, fleet growth, and a state-by-state guide of airline service. Access to a digital version is always available on the website or contact Staci Morgan for details on getting your own desk copy.
