What NAICS 336411 and Connecticut share on one row

NAICS 336411 and place-of-performance state CT meet here. $487,005,932.25 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in Connecticut, not the nationwide Aircraft Manufacturing total, and not cash already paid. Connecticut airframe folklore and statewide aircraft manufacturing stories may send a reader here. Those stories are not a plant list and not a airframe actions census. NAICS 336411 is aircraft manufacturing, not aircraft engines (336412) and not aircraft parts (336413).

36,282 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — tens of thousands of rows beside $487,005,932.25. A thick book is a record count, not a unique-vendor census. The join does not rank Connecticut against other states and does not name vendors, facilities, or airframe actions inside the extract. Unique recipients are unpublished on this page.

Open Connecticut federal spending for the statewide table, NAICS 336411 for the industry hub without a Connecticut filter, Connecticut industries for other Connecticut industry cells, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parent pages into $487,005,932.25.

A thick aircraft-manufacturing book under a Connecticut tag

Dividing $487,005,932.25 by 36,282 yields about $13,423 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical airframe contract. A second 336411 slice on another state uses the same NAICS code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Connecticut's 336411 total as a synonym for every federal aircraft manufacturing purchase. Connecticut airframe folklore is a coding conversation, not a packet field.

Recipient rows live on the industry and state hubs, not in this narrative's extra columns. 36,282 is an award-record count, including modifications, not a count of airframe actions and not a unique-firm census. Keep 336411 and CT as the join key even when a later USAspending ingest restates $487,005,932.25.

NAICS 336411 without a Connecticut overlay is a different total

The NAICS 336411 page aggregates NAICS 336411 without requiring CT geography. The Connecticut federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with Connecticut place of performance. Connecticut industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 336411 filter and the CT filter, which is why it cites 36,282 awards and $487,005,932.25.

Place of performance in Connecticut is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list CT while work occurs in Massachusetts or New York. 336411 awards coded to those states do not sit in this total even if a vendor's mailroom is in East Hartford. This packet does not split East Hartford, Stratford, or Bridgeport. Place of performance is a tag, not proof that every airframe action stayed inside Connecticut.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $487,005,932.25 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as money already spent in Connecticut over-reads the field. Award count 36,282 is a record count, not a payment count.

Readers who need transaction-level detail should use Connecticut federal spending, NAICS 336411, and Connecticut industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug. Keep the obligation label on $487,005,932.25 in every reuse.

What this Connecticut–336411 pair does not prove

A aircraft manufacturing total in Connecticut does not mean the industry caused Connecticut's industrial mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between plant geography and aircraft manufacturing awards is expected; it is not a finding about readiness, waste, or local employment. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset.

Keep $487,005,932.25 labeled as NAICS 336411 obligations with Connecticut place of performance. An industry name that appears near a donor occupation is a coincidence of labeling, not a cash pipeline into USAspending. Connecticut federal spending still includes other NAICS codes that must not be folded into this cell.

How to cite the Connecticut–336411 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing), Connecticut place of performance, $487,005,932.25 in obligations, and 36,282 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word.

A later ingest can restate $487,005,932.25 without changing the join of 336411 and CT. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. East Hartford-versus-Stratford folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Do not treat 36,282 as a unique-firm census. Unique recipients are not published here. Keep NAICS 336411 and CT as the join key. Those stories are not a plant list and not a airframe actions census. Correlation is not causation.

The live hubs linked from this page can refresh the snapshot; this narrative does not invent a fiscal year, a recipient list, or an outlay total that the packet omitted. Place of performance remains a geography tag, not proof that work stayed inside Connecticut. NAICS 336411 without the CT filter is a different total on NAICS 336411.
