Unsere eigenen langfristigen Prognose hat sich nicht viel verändert: Wir erwarten, dass die Welt Flotte von Kolbenmotor Flugzeuge mit Diesel-(Ein und zweimotor ) wird von weniger als 3.000 im Jahr 2012 auf über 200.000 wachsen in 2035.
Das sind ca. 32 Motoren pro Woche im Schnitt .

Alert to all subscribers: we are still inviting testimonies on your experience with your diesel airplane.
As of October 10, 2012, we now have 1,536 subscribers in 79 countries, and ask those who own and operate a diesel plane to inform us of their experience. The US is leading with 805 subscribers, which is natural since well over 50% of the world’s General Aviation fleet, and some 70% of the piston-engined fleet, have an N tail number. We have 889 subscribers in North America; 446 in Greater Europe, the largest numbers being in France (84), the U. K. (73) and Germany (56); we have 194 subscribers in Asia; 73 in the Pacific Rim; 46 in Greater Africa (more than in Latin America, because Africa suffers an absolute shortage of Avgas); 35 in Latin America. We have 67 subscribers in Canada, 63 in Australia, 17 in the Middle East; 15 in Brazil, 9 in India, 8 in China (where General Aviation still is in infancy but is expected to grow as a result of access of low altitude airspace to private aviation) and 4 in Argentina. Also we have one single subscriber (for the time being) in Zambia, Uruguay, Philippines, Peru, Panama, Pakistan, Micronesia, Luxembourg, Lithuania, Lebanon, South Korea, Japan, Guyana, Guatemala, El Salvador, Egypt, Ecuador, Dubai, Dominican Republic, Cyprus, Congo, Chile, Bermuda, Belize. We count 51 subscribers in large corporations, most often from the aerospace industry; and 123 in midsized firms (50 to 3,000 employees), some in the aviation industry, but also in a much larger spectrum of industries. And we have 107 subscribers who are manufacturers, large to small, of components and subsystems for aircraft.
When we created DieselAir in July 2002, initial interest first came from the U. S. And then American pilots understood that diesel would take a long time to come, so our readership extended faster in Europe and Australia. Then it spread throughout the world. And now we see again our North American readership growing, as threats and doubts about Avgas became more visible. Our own long term forecast hasn’t changed much: We expect that the world fleet of piston engine planes with diesel (singles and twins) will grow from less than 3,000 in 2012 to over 200,000 in 2035.
