Where does this number come from?
From the U.S. aircraft registry, a public record. Terminal keeps every version of the file and maps each registrant to the company behind it. This count is aircraft registered in the company’s own name. Aircraft held for it by a lessor or a trustee are not counted. Registration is not flight: the registry shows who holds an aircraft, not whether it flies.
