Executive Summary New England is the birthplace of the American jet engine industry. Employing 33,675 people, 128 firms in the industry build the complex parts, components, sub- assemblies, and control systems that make up a gas turbine engine. Massachusetts industry employment accounts for about 9 percent of total U.S. jet engine and engine parts manu- facturing employment, and the state is second only to Connecticut in its concentration of aircraft engine manufacturing employment. Some twenty firms in Massachusetts employed 11,056 people in this industry in the first quarter of 1999. Building jet engines has tradi- tionally been a successful, but often overlooked, example of Massachusetts firms’ strengths in high-tech manufacturing. The aircraft gas turbine is a technology truly indigenous to New England. The world- wide leaders in the industry, General Electric Aircraft Engines and Pratt & Whitney, whose combined market share totals 80 percent, both trace their roots to the region. The successes of these firms were historically based as much on the wealth of precision production skill in the area as on the engineering and scientific talent that was so abun- dant in the region, thanks to the technical strengths of New England’s universities. Throughout the post–World War II era, innovations in propulsion were the “pacing technology” that led the improvements in aircraft performance, which in turn grew the market for air travel. With each new generation of aircraft engines, air travel became faster, cheaper, safer, and less damaging to the environment. In many ways, the story of the jet engine industry epitomized the golden age of U.S. capitalism in which techno- logical progress helped to grow new markets, providing more and better employment opportunities over time. New England was, for much of the postwar era, at the center of this industrial success story. Recent trends, however, have been less than positive for workers in New England’s air- craft engine industry. Though layoffs and industry consolidation have slowed somewhat since the dark days of the early 1990s, when a downturn in both the military and com- Jet Engine Manufacturing in New England 1
