From that document, here are the estimated total hours flown by type of general aviation aircraft:
Fixed wing piston: 12.9 million
Fixed wing turbine (turboprop + turbojet): 5.6 million
Helicopter (turbine): 1.8 million
Helicopter (pison): 0.6 million
Aside, if you compare Chart4 and Chart5 in that document, you can see that although piston aircraft are far more numerous, on average they spend a lot more time on the ground than turbine powered aircraft.
