The petroleum industry and the coastal and northern parts of Norway are especially dependentent upon air transport. Direct employement at airports and in air transport activities amounts to 20 000 man-years annually. Regional employment multipliers are found to a range from 1.4 - 2.0. An indicator based report system for annual monitoring has been developed.
