• The area of Lancashire therefore has a significant higher concentration of these companies than any other region in the UK, followed by Devon, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, and so on. It is not possible to provide up to date LQs for UK regions for the aerospace manufacture or MRO sub-sectors.


• It is possible to calculate the LQs for the aerospace sub-sectors as they were in 2015 and these are provided in the table below.

• The data suggest that the East Midlands and South West of England have the greatest concentration, and therefore specialism, of aerospace manufacturing companies. The data also reveal that Yorkshire and Humber and East Midlands are the regions with the highest concentration, and therefore specialism, for aerospace MRO across the whole of the UK. The graph below illustrates the LQ calculation and the results.


An LQ above this line means that there are above average aerospace or MRO jobs in the region
