For Florida’s Hillsborough County, general aviation is proving resurgent after a Covid-19-induced dip starting early last year. FBO operators at Peter O. Knight, Plant City, Tampa Executive, and Tampa International airports reported just a 12 percent year-over-year drop in business in 2020, which they attributed to a weak spring that saw the entrenchment of the Covid-19 coronavirus in the U.S. By summer, the operational tempo and fuel flowage had rebounded, it noted.
