Global Commercial Aerospace Testing Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Testing Method (Destructive Testing, Non-Destructive Testing, Ultrasonic Testing, Acoustic Testing, Radiographic Testing, Others), By Aircraft Size (Small, Medium, Large), By End-User (In-House Testing, Outsource Testing), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2025 To 2030

Commercial Aerospace Testing Market Size:

The global commercial aerospace testing market is expected to grow from USD 5.336 billion in 2025 to USD 7.114 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 5.92%.

An Increasing number of aircraft deliveries owing to the growing global travel and tourism industry is one of the major drivers of the aerospace testing market. Stringent aviation regulations regarding aircraft safety across different countries are further boosting the demand for aerospace testing services, thus positively impacting the growth of the aerospace testing market. Technological advancements in aircraft testing, such as magnetic optic imagers and 3D scanning, will further bolster the growth of the aerospace testing market during the next five years.

Commercial Aerospace Testing Market Drivers:

The Growing global travel and tourism industry is expected to increase the demand for commercial aerospace testing due to the increase in demand for commercial aircraft. Additionally, Stringent aviation regulations are also predicted to drive the growth of the market in the forecasted period. Additionally, the legal authority allowing the application of drones for commercial use is expected to drive growth in the market as it aids in increasing the potential revenue pipeline for various aircraft manufacturers. For instance, the Federal Aviation Authority of the US was reported to issue an Operations Over People rule which came into effect on April 21, 2021. According to it, drone pilots operating under Part 107 were allowed to fly at night, over people and moving vehicles without the need for a waiver as long as they met the requirements defined in that rule. Airspace authorizations are still mandatory for nightly operations in controlled airspace under an elevation of 400 feet.  Relaxation of these regulations is thus expected to aid the market for commercial drones in the forecast period, which will in turn fuel the market for aviation testing in the sector as well, hence, driving growth. Numerous other countries follow the regulatory lead of the FAA in order to clear commercial drones for take-off around the world and not just in the US. This, in combination with the launch of reliable and stronger drones by various companies specifically for commercial use, like the drones manufactured by the Chinese market player, DJI, along with the public sales of these commercial drones is projected to drive growth in the market as well.

Commercial Aerospace Testing Market Opportunities:

Technological advancements in the industry are expected to put forward lucrative opportunities for players in the industry.
