AINonline reported that business jet deliveries remain relatively virtually flat, according to third-quarter industry numbers released by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association.

According to the report, during the first nine months of 2012, OEMs delivered 428 business jets, just one more than they did during the same period of 2011.

The AINonline report also said the turboprop market for pressurized models saw a 4.8% decline from the 146 aircraft delivered in the first nine months of 2011.

Total industry billings, however, increased 1.4 percent year-over-year during the first nine months, to $12.3 billion.
