Aviation statistics, gathered by my department and published on the government website, relate to passenger numbers arriving through the State and Regional Airports. The statistics do not differentiate between private aircraft and/or commercial aircraft.

Private aircraft landing at privately owned airports are a commercial matter for those airports.
