Summary/Abstract: The article contains an outline of taxonomical analysis of the economic development in Polish civilian airport catchment areas. Individual features defined in the course of the research characterize the economic condition and the spatial developmental state of individual airport catchment areas. Descriptive statistics set for particular airport classes form a kind of indicators, reference points or benchmarks used in the course of the analysis and the assessment of status quo. They can be used later on in some processes, such as:• choosing a set of supranational, standard tools for modeling the local spatial planning policy and creating integrated polycentric regional plans, and• creating a development strategy of the airport catchment areas in Central Europe, basing on the historical development analogy method (considered with relation to an increase in GDP, improvement of the economic condition of households, etc.).
