What this shows Aircraft's Innovation Score is 30.8/100 (35th percentile of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Aircraft?

Each dot is one of Aircraft’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Aircraft’s own 20.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Aircraft's grants concentrate

Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G08G (Traffic Control Systems). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Aircraft sits between AiMi Inc. and Allele Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals, Inc..

Aircraft's three-year grant acceleration

Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
