Tweets of the day:
@jonostrower CFM execs say “we’re working a whole cadre of technologies” to keep pace with whatever Boeing might want for NMA. #FIA16.
@jonostrower CFM planning for 50+ Leap customer introductions over three years. This includes 737 Max in 2017 as well. #FIA16.
@LARA_Editor The COMAC C919 is still expected to have 1st flight late this year, says @CFM_engines. #FIA16.
@LARA_Editor There will be 50+ @CFM_engines LEAP EISs (different customers) in 3 years including 6 in the first 100 days, says EVP Allen Paxson. #FIA16.
@LARA_Editor This year will be the all-time record year for @CFM_engines CFM56 production, at 1,700+, after which it declines as LEAP increases. #FIA16.
@R_Wall @CFM_engines says it has booked 1,660 engine total orders this year through June — ahead of 2015 pace — with 700 CFM56s and 960 Leaps.
@StratAero @GEAviation CEO – I like our technology store (3D, additive mfg). We’d build it with @CFM_engines for @BoeingAirplanes NMA/MOM proposal.
