Maybe companies with execs who need to fly around. In high school, the father of a best friend was a VP of Circle K grocery stores. They had stores all over Arizona and New Mexico, many in very out-of-the-way locations. He was very much a hands-on manager. He got his private pilot's license, his twin engine and IFR ratings so he could fly the company's twin Baron on inspection tours of their stores. He did this two days/week, knew every one of the couple of hundred store managers by name and what their particular stores needed. No way he could have done that without the plane.
