AGAINST THE US
What stands out in Ohio
- Ohio holds 4.0% of the business jets and 1.4% of the turboprops registered to a US address.
- 49% of all US-registered Embraer Legacy 450 / Praetor 500 aircraft are registered here (84 of 173), the highest share of any model in Ohio.
- Trusts are rare: 0.3% of aircraft here against 11% nationally, because trust-held aircraft are registered at the trustee's address, mostly in Utah and Delaware.
- 38% of Ohio's aircraft are registered at an address shared by five or more different owners, against 17% nationally. Many owners here use a trust company, registered agent or management company as their address, so the aircraft may be based elsewhere.
- 33% are registered to co-owners, against 8% nationally, which points to fractional ownership programs.
- Jets dominate: turboprops are only 16% of the aircraft registered here, against 34% nationally.
- The median aircraft registered here was built in 2015, newer than the US median of 2008.

METHOD
How this is counted
- State. The mailing address on each FAA registration. It is where the owner, or the owner’s trustee or agent, receives mail, which is not always where the aircraft is based.
- Small counts. Model families with fewer than five aircraft here are left out; class and owner-type counts under five show as “<5”.
- Certificates. Registration certificates issued in the 12 months to October 5, 2026 to aircraft now registered in Ohio.
Source: FAA Releasable Aircraft Database, file of October 5, 2026, recounted with each site update. Aggregates and company names only: no N-number, serial number or person’s name. Counts of individually owned or co-owned aircraft under five are shown as “<5”. The full rules are in the ownership report’s method and on the open data page.
