The Midlands region hosts one of the world’s biggest aerospace clusters – even though we don’t make aircraft. We design and make the aero-engines and sophisticated mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and electronic systems that make aircraft fly. We are home to nearly ¼ of the UK aerospace industry, 7% per cent of Europe’s and 3% of the world’s, with more than 40,000 FTE jobs supplying global aerospace markets – and another 20,000 jobs at 2 major airports and 8 RAF bases.
Midlands Aerospace Alliance (MAA)
More than 270 organisations belong to the MAA, ranging from global players ITP Aero UK, Parker Meggitt, Moog Aircraft Group, Rolls-Royce and Collins Aerospace to small supply chain companies and key regional partner bodies.
