Some are born great, others have greatness thrust upon them. With the LEAP engine, you get a little of both. It’s a legend in the making, with 3-D woven carbon fiber composite fan blades, a built-in debris rejection system, and ceramic matrix composites. If you want to know where all that innovation comes from, blame the parents.

fORewORdWelcome to Flightglobal Insight’s Commercial Engines 2014 Special Report.

The report examines the latest trends and developments in the commercial engine sector, using data and analysis from across Flightglobal’s range of products, including the Ascend Fleets database, our premium news service and our magazines Airline Business and Flight International.

We scrutinise how the market share battles are playing out between the engine manufacturers in the hard-fought single-aisle sector, as new technology powerplants from Pratt & Whitney and CFM International come to the fore. Competition in the widebody arena is no less intense, as Rolls-Royce, General Electric, Pratt & Whitney and Engine Alliance fight for supremacy on key airframes including the Airbus A330 and A380, and Boeing 787.

Two important engine milestones were passed during 2013, with the first R-R Trent XWB and P&W PW1000G geared turbofan-powered airliners, the Airbus A350 and Bombardier CSeries making their maiden flights in June and September, respectively. These two all-new types have been racking up the test hours ahead of their certification and service entry. The A350 is expected to debut before the end of 2014 with Qatar Airways, while the first CSeries delivery has slipped into the second half of next year.

The next application for the PW1000G, the A320neo, is moving rapidly towards flight-test as Airbus completes assembly of the first airframe. This re-engined airliner is due to fly in the fourth quarter of 2014 and enter service a year later.

While initial A320neos will be P&W-powered, the alternative powerplant – CFM International’s Leap-1A, is due to follow around nine months later. CFM began Leap-1A ground tests in September 2013 and flight trials will be undertaken during 2014 on engine partner GE’s new 747-400 testbed. Following its service entry on the Airbus single-aisle twinjet, the Leap is due to power Boeing’s re-engined 737 Max and the Chinese Comac C919 twinjet into commercial operation in 2017.

Amid the new engines’ flying debuts last year, Boeing was hard at work getting two more airframe applications off the

drawing boards with the launch another stretched Dreamliner derivative, the 787-10, and the all-new 777X family.

While the latest 787 addition will be powered by revamped versions of the Dreamliner’s existing R-R Trent 1000 and GE GEnx turbofans, GE has an all-new “big fan” in the works for the 777X, the GE9X. This new engine succeeds the current 777’s GE90, and will initially be rated at just over 100,000lb thrust. It is due to enter service on Boeing’s new big twin in 2020.

Powerplants have been central to speculation surrounding potential Airbus widebody developments too, amid talk of re-engined “A330neos” and “A380neos”. While the latter is a potential longer-term development, the prospects for an early decision on any A330 move are strong. Such an aircraft could provide Airbus with a cost-effective way to counter the smaller 787 derivatives but would likely spell the end of the road for the smallest A350, the -800.

As potential new Airbus widebody applications emerge, R-R has revealed plans to develop two new Trent-based engines which will be ready for service in 2020 and 2025. The UK engine manufacturer made the move after abandoning its advanced narrowbody powerplant joint venture with long-time partner (and former IAE brethren) P&W in September 2013.

The first new R-R engine, dubbed “Advance”, will have a bypass ratio of 11:1. The later engine could incorporate open-rotor architecture.

Such a high-bypass design could hold the key to a Boeing market study into an aircraft with the size and range to fill the niche of the 757. Boeing has been keen to emphasise that the evaluation is in its very early stages, but the study could ultimately lead to the introduction of a highly efficient, medium-range 200-250 seater a decade from now.

As new engine and airframe developments come thick and fast, Flightglobal has been working to expand this annual special report. The 2014 edition incorporates updated information and analysis as well as some new elements including an infographic illustrating the production timeline for turbofan engines powering commercial airliners since the 1960s.

The number of installed engines equipping aircraft delivered by Airbus and Boeing during 2013 totalled 2,598 units, while the total backlog amounted to 21,636 engines.

The CFM56 engine was installed on over half of the commercial Airbus and Boeing aircraft delivered. CFM International has also taken a 48% share of the order backlog with 10,280 engines.

IAE came in second place for the 2013 deliveries with 442 engines, closely followed by General Electric with 436.

Rolls-Royce was second in the order backlog with a 12% share (2,672 engines).

Airbus and Boeing’s active commercial fleet at 31 December 2013 totalled 19,021 aircraft, with 7,399 for Airbus and 11,622 for Boeing. CFM International had a market share of 49% with 9,260 aircraft.

The Airbus A330 engine manufacturer share table (see right) shows that 77% of the deliveries in 2013 were completed with R-R Trent engines, with its aircraft backlog share standing at 58% (153 aircraft). GE’s CF6 and Pratt & Whitney’s PW4000 are the other two options for the A330. A total of 103 A330s were delivered during the year while the backlog stood at 262 at the end of December.

The Boeing 767 can be powered by either the GE CF6 or the P&W PW4000. The table (see right) shows that 17 GE-powered and four P&W-powered aircraft were delivered in 2013. The backlog stood at 45, with 44 for GE and the

The battle in the single-aisle engine arena is intensifying as the re-engined Airbus A320neo family moves from paper project to reality and incumbent supplier CFM International looks to see off the threat posed by new entrant Pratt & Whitney and its geared turbofan. Meanwhile, the widebody market is moving up a gear as Rolls-Royce seeks to benefit from its exclusive position on the A350 XWB and fight off the advance from the newly launched General Electric GE9X-powered 777X.

new powerplants

Pratt & Whitney and CFM trade blows as data from test programmes for their new single-aisle engines emerge.

Pratt & Whitney and CFM International are putting their money where their mouths are, as they gear up for test programmes for powerplants that are central to delivering double-digit improvements on fuel consumption promised for the next generation of narrowbodies.

Meanwhile, powerplants are set to be central to Boeing’s studies into a new airliner that will address the market between the existing narrowbody families and the entrylevel widebodies.

As data from the test programmes begins to flow, the claims and counterclaims over the performance of Pratt & Whitney’s PW1000G geared turbofan (GTF) and CFM’s Leap are turning from “words and Power-Points” to facts and figures.

“We have now tested 31 GTF engines since initiating testing in September 2010,” says David Brantner, president of P&W

15:1Bypass ratio for rolls-

royce’s ultraFan engine concept

Commercial Engines. The engine family has accumulated over 7,600h and 17,000 cycles of full testing, including 850h of flight time.

The initial application for the GTF is the PW1500G powering the Bombardier CSeries. This engine variant was certificated in February 2013 by Transport Canada. CSeries flight testing began in September last year and three aircraft are now flying, with certification and service entry slated for 2015.

Next up is the PW1100G, which along with the Leap-1A, equips the Airbus A320neo. The Leap-1B is the exclusive engine on the Boeing 737 Max and the Leap-1C on China’s all-new narrowbody, the Comac 919.

The PW1100G is the lead engine on the A320neo, and Brantner says that P&W is working with Airbus for the first flight in the third quarter.

He adds that the engine has validated P&W’s efficiency claims by meeting its targets. “We are seeing fuel burn really hit its mark,” he says. “This is the first time in Pratt & Whitney’s history we have an engine doing this well.”

CFM ran its first Leap in September last year and has achieved 274 starts, 310h and over 400 cycles on the first engine, says CFM executive vice-president Chaker Chahrour. A further four test engines were due to join the certification programme by the end of March, with a total of 20 on test by year-end.

CONFIDENT STANCECFM describes the early results of the Leap tests as “fantastic”. According to Chahrour: “The engine went to full power just a couple of hours after we broke it in, and went to over 33,000lb-thrust [147kN] on the second day of testing.”

The positive test results are leading both manufacturers to be confident in their offerings. “This engine, when built to specification, will deliver the performance we promised customers,” says Chahrour of the Leap.

Pratt & Whitney and CFM Interna-tional are putting their money where their mouths are, as they gear up for test programmes for powerplants that are central to

delivering double-digit improvements on fuel consumption promised for the next genera-tion of narrowbodies.

Meanwhile, powerplants are set to be cen-tral to Boeing’s studies into a new airliner that will address the market between the existing narrowbody families and the entry-level widebodies.

As data from the test programmes begins to flow, the claims and counterclaims over the performance of Pratt & Whitney’s PW1000G geared turbofan (GTF) and CFM’s Leap are turning from “words and Power-Points” to facts and figures.

“We have now tested 31 GTF engines since initiating testing in September 2010,” says David Brantner, president of P&W Commer-cial Engines. The engine family has accumu-lated over 7,600h and 17,000 cycles of full testing, including 850h of flight time.

The initial application for the GTF is the PW1500G powering the Bombardier CSeries. This engine variant was certificated in Febru-ary 2013 by Transport Canada.

Brantner is adopting an equally strident stance about the GTF: “We are going to hit our mark at entry into service. Any improvements will be extra value.”

The Leap-1C configuration for the C919 will be the first of CFM’s new family of engines to enter flight testing on joint venture partner General Electric’s Boeing 747 flying testbed in May. The Leap-1B for Boeing’s 737 Max will enter flight testing in mid-June with the Leap-1A for the A320neo following in September.

As both manufacturers wind up their test engine programmes and the massive supply chains to build them, the orderbooks are bulging. P&W has racked up over 5,000 commitments, including options, for its GTF, from more than 50 airlines and lessors. CFM now has 6,000 Leaps on order. “To be at that level so early in a programme is unprecedented,” says Chahrour.

200-300 SEATERBoeing caused a bit of stir at the recent Singapore air show when it revealed a significant amount of detail about its evaluation of the market for a new 200-300 seater. This market was left vacant when Boeing ended production of the 757 narrowbody in 2004 after just over 1,000 deliveries.

The 757 was unique in widebody circles, as it offered a range in the 4,000-5,000nm (7,400-9,250km) category. Such a capability sits in the niche between the top of the singleaisle products occupied by the 737-900ER/Max 9 and Airbus A321, and the bottom end of the 787 and A330 widebody families.

Speaking at the Singapore show, Boeing’s senior vice-president of global sales, John Wojick, said the project is in the “study and customer requirement phase” and the company has “an awful lot of discussions to go with our customers”.

Sources indicate that the timing of any new mid-sized airliner would see service entry after the last of Boeing’s recently launched programmes, the 777X, deliveries of which begin in 2020.

Observers believe the requisite engine is likely to be in the 30,000-50,000lb-thrust bracket, with potential suppliers including the existing narrowbody powerplant specialists CFM and P&W, along with Rolls-Royce.

Wojick says the studies have not yet reached the stage where Boeing has entered detailed discussions with engine suppliers about the powerplant technology that could be adopted for any new 200-300 seater. Brantner says that P&W has “a technology roadmap to advance the next-generation GTF.

“Suffice to say that the GTF platform is scalable, we are working on the technologies that can scale us to provide for any future platforms that come along. Of course, when they come along, we evaluate the business case... and make sure our technology is ready.”

FIRST REFUSALCFM – which is a joint venture between General Electric and Safran – says it has “first refusal” over its shareholders on engine programmes with up to 50,000lb-thrust, although any final decision would be discussed at shareholder level.

“We’re working with [Boeing], we’re talking about it... It’s just a study at this point. If it ends up needing an engine in the thrust class where CFM plays, we will be there to contribute,” says CFM’s Chahrour.

Rolls-Royce, which was the launch engine supplier on the 757 with its RB211 powering a large number of the aircraft delivered, has unveiled plans for two new engine concepts incorporating advanced technology.

According to Eric Schulz, president of R-R civil large engines, the company is “preparing to re-enter the mid-market with conviction” as one of its “two big strategies” for the next decade (the other being to protect its 50% share in widebody orders). This move comes only two years after R-R walked out on its partners in the International Aero Engines consortium.

Schulz says R-R “stands by” its decision to abandon IAE, and consequently the narrowbody sector. However, he insists: “Going forward, it is a segment in which we intend to continue to play.”

He says technology being developed for large fans might be deployed into smaller engines. Ironically – given its opposition to IAE adopting P&W’s GTF architecture – one of these technologies is a geared multistage intermediate-pressure turbine being proposed for UltraFan, the second of its two new engine concepts.

The UltraFan will have a bypass ratio of 15:1, and the introduction of a geared fan is an “option for later”, says R-R. So having rejected P&W’s geared turbofan design for the A320neo, a geared core may end up being one of the critical elements of R-R’s future engine strategy.

After years of the single-aisle sector being effectively a two-horse race, the race to power narrowbodies is starting to look like a more dynamic market.

cOmmeRcial enginesOverview by engine manufacturer and type

AVIADVIGATELAviadvigatel is a Russian design bureau founded in 1939 that specialises in developing civil and military aircraft engines. The company is the successor of the Soviet Soloviev Design Bureau which was responsible for the D-30 engine that is in service today on aircraft including the Il-62, Il-76, Tu-134 and Tu-154. The company is responsible for the PS-90 engine and is currently developing the new PD-14 for the new Russian Irkut MS-21 airliner. Aviadvigatel has now merged with the Perm Motors Group.

PS-90The Aviadvigatel PS-90 was developed to satisfy the demands of economy, performance and exhaust emission standards. It incorporates advanced technology including a high-bypass turbofan design, acoustically treated exhaust duct and full-authority digital engine control (FADEC).

The PS-90A was certified in 1992, eventually became the first Russian engine that accumulated over 9,000 hours without any removal, and was installed on Aeroflot’s Il-96-300.

The PS-90 now powers Russian airliners including the Ilyushin Il-76 and Il-96 as well as the Tupolev Tu-204.

As of May 2014, there were 39 aircraft powered by the PS-90 engine in a commercial role and 16 on order.

PD-14The PD-14 was announced in early 2010 and is Russia’s answer to the latest turbofan engines for single-aisle aircraft from CFM International and Pratt & Whitney.

The engine is one of the two options for the powerplant on the Irkut MS-21 narrowbody which is due to enter service in 2017.

The PD-14’s design has many similarities with the CFM International Leap engine. It is composed of 18 blades made from a titanium alloy.

Aerodynamic tests on the nacelle of the PD-14 began in November 2013.

Aviadvigatel acknowledges that the PD-14 would also provide a new core that could be developed into an engine it calls the PD-18R, which would feature a fan-drive gear system similar to the PW1400G.

CFM56The CFM56 was first contracted to re-engine DC-8 Super 70s, military 707s and Boeing KC-135s. It has a thrust range of 18,500-34,000lb-thrust (83-151kN) and first ran in 1974.

The company (CFM), and product line (CFM56), got their names by a combination of the two parent companies’ commercial engine designations: GE’s CF6 and Snecma’s M56.

It is now one of the most common turbofan aircraft engines in the world with a market share of 49% of all commercial Airbus and Boeing aircraft currently in service (see page 7).

In the early 1980s, Boeing selected the CFM56 to exclusively power its latest 737-300 variant, what is now called the 737 Classic. The CFM56 was first delivered on the 737 in 1984 and has powered all versions of the 737 ever since.

The CFM56 was first delivered on the A320 in 1988 and powers all models of the family, including the A318, A319, A320, A321, as well as A340-200 and A340-300 aircraft. The CFM56 is the most widely-used engine on commercial narrowbodies, with a current market share of more than 65% (see page 7).

The CFM56 line has six engine models in its portfolio including the CFM56-2, CFM56-3, CFM56-5A, CFM56-5C, CFM56-5B and CFM56-7B. The engine has a thrust range of 18,500-34,000lb.

CFM INTERNATIONAL CFM International is a 50:50 joint venture between General Electric and Snecma (Safran) that was founded in 1974. The company is most famous for building CFM56 turbofans, an engine that now powers more than 11,000 commercial and military aircraft including the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 families. More than 26,000 CFM56s have been built since its introduction to the market in 1982.

The CFM56 core engine is derived from the General Electric F101 turbofan, developed by GE for military applications. The CFM56 first ran at the company’s Evendale plant on 20 June 1974 and the first production models, installed in a re-engined McDonnell Douglas DC-8-70 airframe, entered service in April 1982.

GE is responsible for design integration, the core engine and the main engine control of the CFM56, while Snecma is responsible for the low-pressure system, gearbox, accessory integration and engine installation.

The CFM56 is currently fitted on 8,889 in-service aircraft in a commercial role.

With more than 600 737s in its fleet in 2014, Southwest Airlines is by a significant margin the carrier with the largest number of CFM56-powered aircraft in the world.

Ryanair’s 737-only fleet consists of a total of 297 aircraft, while United Airlines’ in-service fleet of more than 700 aircraft includes 268 737s. EasyJet is the operator with the largest number of CFM56-fitted Airbus aircraft, with a fleet of 199 A320s in service.

In May 2014, a firm order backlog of 2,299 airliners were due to be fitted with the CFM56.

Since its launch, the aircraft has received more than 2,400 orders, making it the fastest-selling commercial aircraft in history. The A320neo backlog stood at 1,345 in May 2014, with 669 to be equipped with the Leap-1A and 1,031 still undecided. The first Leap-1A was assembled in August 2013 while ground tests began the following month. Flight trials will be undertaken during 2014 on parent company GE’s new 747-400 testbed.

The Leap-1B engine is exclusive to the Boeing 737 Max. In December 2011, Southwest Airlines became the launch customer for the re-engined narrowbody, placing a firm order for 150 737 Max aircraft. At $19 billion at list prices, this was the largest firm order in Boeing’s history. The Dallas-based airline, which was also the launch customer for both the Boeing 737 Classic and 737 Next Generation series, now has a backlog of 200 737 Max aircraft and will take delivery of its first in 2017.

AirAsia stood as the leading Leap customer as of May 2014, with an order backlog of 264 aircraft followed by Lion Air with 201. The other significant customers for the 737 Max include American Airlines, Norwegian and United Airlines, with an order backlog of 100 each. The firm backlog for the aircraft stood at 1,683 in May 2014.

The Leap-1C has been chosen by China’s Comac as the exclusive powerplant for its C919, a 168-190 passenger single-aisle twinjet. Accompanying the Leap-1C engine is an integrated propulsion system (IPS) built by Nexcelle, a joint venture between GE and Safran. The C919 will be the largest commercial airliner ever to be designed and built in China. In October 2011, Chinese lessor ICBC Leasing announced an order for 45 C919s, as well as an agreement to be the launch customer for the aircraft.

The C919’s first flight is expected to take place in 2014, with initial deliveries scheduled for 2017. The C919 order backlog stood at 55 aircraft in May 2014.

LEAPThe Leap turbofan is the successor to the CFM56 line, which CFM has been working on since 1999. Leap (Leading Edge Aviation Propulsion) technology draws on developments made in previous years by GE and Snecma with engines such as the GE90 and GEnx.

Launched at the 2005 Paris air show as a possible CFM56 replacement, the Leap programme was at that time intended to supply the next generation of turbofans for all-new single-aisle aircraft by Airbus and Boeing. At that time, a few industry players expected a replacement for the A320 or 737 to appear before 2020.

Over the following years, the single-aisle market evolved rapidly. A competitor, P&W, introduced a new innovation in propulsion called a fan-drive system, the Chinese entered the market with a new single-aisle airframe, and Airbus and Boeing deferred plans for an all-new single-aisle. Instead, the US and European airframers settled for re-engining and updating their products within this decade.

The Leap is the only engine on all three narrowbodies in development with at least 160 seats (Airbus A320neo, Boeing 737 Max and Comac C919). The Leap fan will have a 198cm (78in) diameter for the A320neo and C919, and 175cm diameter for the 737 Max. All Leap fans will have 18 blades, significantly fewer than the CFM56-5B’s 36 titanium blades and the CFM56-7B’s 24 blades. Combined with a new lighter fan containment structure, the total weight savings will be 455kg per aircraft compared with a same-sized fan using metal blades and case.

The Leap engine will be the first commercial turbofan to incorporate ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), which are installed as the shroud encasing the first stage of the high-pressure turbine. CMCs are a lightweight material that can survive temperatures that would cause even actively-cooled metal blades to melt. Operators can expect 15% fuel burn improvements compared with the CFM56 engines currently in production. Noise levels will also be cut in half and NOx levels will meet CAEP/6 requirements with a 50% margin. These improvements will not sacrifice the reliability and maintenance costs of the CFM56.

The Leap-1A is one of two engine options for the Airbus A320neo, due to enter service in 2016. Virgin America became the first airline to place firm orders for the A320neo in December 2010 with a deal for 30 aircraft. It subsequently selected the Leap-1A to power the aircraft.

were in service, of which 64 were powered by the GP7200, while the order backlog stood at 173 aircraft, with 74 assigned to the GP7200.

Emirates is Engine Alliance’s primary customer, with a total of 47 A380s currently in their fleet and an additional 42 on order.

GP7200 The main application for Engine Alliance’s first engine was originally the Boeing 747-500/600X projects, before these were cancelled as a result of a lack of demand from airlines. The engine has since been pushed for the Airbus A380 super-jumbo which carries the largest payload in aviation history.

The GP7000 family is derived from the GE90 and PW4000 series. It is built on the GE90 core and the PW4000 low spool heritage. The engine is certificated at 76,500lb-thrust and 81,500lb-thrust.

The GP7200 engine was brought into service on the A380 in August 2008 by Emirates. The GP7200 is one of the two engine options for this aircraft and was designed specifically for it.

Airlines including Air Austral, Air France, Emirates, Etihad, Korean Air, Qatar and Transaero have chosen the GP7200 to power their A380s. In May 2014, a total of 130 A380s

ENGINE ALLIANCE Engine Alliance is a 50:50 joint venture between General Electric and P&W that was formed in 1996 to develop, manufacture, sell and support a family of engines for new high-capacity, long-range aircraft.

In mid-1996, Boeing announced it was beginning development of new growth derivatives of the 747, the 747-500/600. Neither GE Aircraft Engines nor P&W had engines in their own product lines in the necessary 70,000-85,000lb-thrust range. Each company had independently forecast worldwide demand for aircraft in this market segment, and had determined that it might not be large enough to justify the approximate $1 billion expense of developing a new centerline engine. A joint venture between these otherwise aggressive competitors seemed the logical solution and so, in August 1996, GE and P&W established the joint venture company GE-P&W Engine Alliance, to develop the GP7000 engine.

The idea was to use the core competencies of each parent company to design, develop, certify and manufacture a state-of-the-art high bypass turbofan engine for 450-seat and larger four-engined aircraft. Boeing later shelved its immediate plans for a growth 747 version while Airbus began to consider development of an aircraft called the A3XX, planned as the largest-ever commercial transport aircraft.

Airbus approached Engine Alliance about powering the new aircraft, and received preliminary development support in the form of various GP7000 engine designs for the A3XX between 1998 and 2000. Airbus made the commercial relationship official in December 2000 with the launch of the A380 programme, and in May 2001, the GP7000 programme was fully established when Air France selected the GP7270 to power the 10 A380-800 passenger aircraft it had on order.

CF6The CF6 engine entered the commercial widebody market in 1971 on the DC-10.

The CF6 is currently in service on the 747, 767, A300, A310, A330 and MD-11. The CF6-80C2 (military designation: F103) was selected to re-engine the C-5 RERP.

There are five models of the CF6: CF6-6, CF6-50, CF6-80A, CF6-80C2 and CF6-80E1. The first model, the CF6-6, was developed with 40,000lb-thrust, while the newest CF6-80E1 model, designed specifically for the Airbus A330, produces 72,000lb-thrust.

The engine family has completed over 325 million flight hours with more than 260 customers since it entered commercial revenue service.

More than 1,350 CF6-powered airliners are still active.

CF34The CF34 turbofan is a derivative of the GE TF34 which powers the US Air Force A-10 and US Navy S-3A. The CF34 is installed on regional jets including the Bombardier CRJ series, the Bombardier Challenger, the Embraer E-Jets and the Chinese Comac ARJ21, which is currently under development.

The CF34 was first used on business jets in 1983 and on regional jets in 1992.

Since the first CF34-3A1 engine entered service in 1992, its dispatch reliability rate has remained at 99.95%, with more than 80 million flight hours and 65 million cycles completed.

There are three models of the CF34 engine: CF34-3, CF34-8 and the latest CF34-10.

As of May 2014, there were more than 2,200 CF34-powered active commercial aircraft worldwide.

GENERAL ELECTRIC General Electric’s aerospace division, GE Aviation, is part of GE Technology Infrastructure – itself part of the conglomerate General Electric. GE Aviation operated under the name of General Electric Aircraft Engines (GEAE) until September 2005.

The General Electric Company built its first turbine engine in 1941 when it began development of Whittle-type turbojets under a technical exchange arrangement between the British and American governments. GE’s first entry into the civil engine market was in the late 1950s, with a commercial version of the J79 designated CJ805. In 1967, GE announced the development of the CF6 high-bypass turbofan for future widebody airliners.

GE’s presence in the widebody engine market has expanded steadily since the early 1970s, and the manufacturer’s engines now power the largest proportion of the world’s active commercial widebody fleet, with a share of 46%, and regional aircraft, with a 62% share.

GEnxThe GEnx (General Electric Next-generation) is the successor to the CF6 and is based on the GE90’s architecture.

The GEnx is intended to replace the CF6 in GE’s production line and will deliver 15% better specific fuel consumption than the engines it replaces.

It is designed to stay on wing 30% longer while using 30% fewer parts, greatly reducing maintenance time and cost. The GEnx’s emissions are expected to be as much as 95% below regulatory limits.

The GEnx is an option on the Boeing 787 and is exclusively used to power the 747-8.

GE is in partnership with P&W through the Engine Alliance, which is responsible for the GP7200 engine designed for the A380. GE is also a partner with Snecma in CFM International.

There are two models of the GEnx: the GEnx-1B (used on the 787-8 and 787-9) and the GEnx-2B (used on the 747-8 Intercontinental and Freighter).

In October 2011, Cargolux was the first customer to receive a GEnx-powered aircraft, fitted to its 747-8.

From 16 January to the end of April 2013, the global 787 fleet was grounded following battery failures.

As of May 2014, there were 60 747-8s in service with a backlog of 49. The GEnx was also fitted on 88 787s and the order backlog stood at 432.

GE90The GE90 turbofan series is physically the largest engine in aviation history. It was developed from the Energy Efficient Engine, which was a programme funded by NASA in the 1970s to develop technologies suitable for energy efficient turbofans.

The GE90 was specifically designed for the Boeing 777 and was introduced into service in November 1995 with British Airways. Snecma of France, Avio of Italy and IHI of Japan are participants in the GE90 development programme.

The engine was originally certificated at 84,700lb-thrust with a fan diameter of 312cm. It comes in two models: the GE90-94B and GE90-115B.

The latest Boeing 777 variants – the -200LR/300ER and 777F – are exclusively powered by the GE90-115B. It has a fan diameter of 325cm and, with a nominal rating of 115,000lb-thrust, is the most powerful aircraft engine in the world.

On 10 November 2005, the GE90-110B1 powered a 777-200LR during the world’s longest flight by a commercial airliner. The aircraft flew 21,601km in 22h 42min, flying from Hong Kong to London via the Pacific, then over the continental USA, and finally over the Atlantic to London.

The GEnx engine, which entered service in 2011, is derived from a smaller core variant of the GE90.

More than 65% of all the 777s currently in service are powered by a GE90 engine. In May 2014, a total of 782 GE90-powered 777s were in service, while the order backlog stood at 279. Emirates is the carrier with the largest number of GE90-powered 777s with 114 in its fleet.

and will have a range of more than 9,300nm with a list price of US$349.8 million.

Other major changes on the 777X include a larger, composite wing, which incorporates folding tips to allow it to use 777-sized parking bays and taxiways, the GE9X engines and a revised cabin.

The GE9X, which will have the largest fan produced by GE, will be the most fuel-efficient engine GE has ever produced on a per-pound-of-thrust basis, designed to achieve a 10% improved aircraft fuel burn versus the GE90-115B-powered 777-300ER and a 5% improved specific fuel consumption versus any twin-aisle engine at service entry. In addition, the engine will deliver an approximate 10-to-1 bypass ratio, a 60-to-1 overall pressure ratio and margin to Stage 5 noise limits.

In May 2014, the 777X had 66 firm orders, with an additional 62 options and 234 letters of intent (LoIs).

GE9XBoeing launched the 777X at the Dubai air show in 2013, backed by commitments for over 300 aircraft from four customers.

Boeing announced that it had selected the GE9X to exclusively power the 777X, extending the engine maker’s propulsion monopoly to the next generation of the widebody type. The 777X is expected to compete with the Airbus A350-900 and A350-1000 over a wide span of the market, stretching from about 330 seats to more than 400, and offering ultra-long range.

The two-member 777X family in the 350- to 400-seat category sits at the top of Boeing’s widebody twinjet line-up, above its three variants of the 787 and below the 747-8I. The 777X, which is due to enter service in 2020, is the successor to today’s strong-selling 777-300ER, and ultra-long-range -200LR.

The 777-9X is the larger variant, featuring a slight stretch over the -300ER and raising seating by around 14 passengers in similar typical layouts. It will provide a range of more than 8,200nm (15,200km) and has a list price of US$377.2 million.

The 350-seat 777-8X is developed from the 777-200 airframe, with a 10-frame stretch. It will enter service in 2022 ge9X

Although IAE promises smaller fuel burn savings than next-generation engines such as the Leap and PW1000G, SelectTwo shows that the joint venture is committed to providing support and continued investment in the engine.

The core and low-pressure spool of the two-shaft V2500 was left untouched by the upgrade. SelectTwo comprises software improvements for the electronic engine control and a new data entry plug.

IAE continues to work with its airline customers to define the requirements for the SelectThree improvements scheduled for service entry around 2015.

There are more than 2,400 V2500-powered airliners in service around the world, and the engine has been chosen for approximately 800 A320 family aircraft on order.

V2500The V2500 powerplant was introduced into service in May 1989 on Airbus A320s operated by Adria Airways. The engine also powers the A319 and A321 variants and the Boeing MD-90.

There are three models of the V2500 engine – the V2500-A1, V2500-A5 and V2500-D5 – and each IAE partner contributes an individual module to the engine’s construction.

P&W provides the combustor and high-pressure turbine, R-R the high-pressure compressor, JAEC the fan and low-pressure compressor, and MTU the low-pressure turbine.

IAE unveiled the SelectOne performance improvement package for the V2500 in 2005 with launch customer IndiGo, with which it also signed an aftermarket agreement.

The next package of improvements, dubbed SelectTwo, should make its operational debut in the first quarter of 2014.

IAE is offering the SelectTwo package as a sales order option on V2500-A5 SelectOne engines, but has not announced a launch customer.

The SelectTwo engine should trim fuel burn costs by 0.58% for an Airbus A320 on a 930km leg. This represents savings of roughly $4.3 million over a 10-year period for a 10-aircraft fleet of A320s completing 2,300 flights per year.

INTERNATIONAL AERO ENGINES International Aero Engines is a joint venture that was originally set up between P&W, Rolls-Royce, MTU Aero Engines and Japanese Aero Engine Corporation (JAEC). IAE was formed in 1983 to develop an engine for the 150-seat single-aisle market. In October 2011, R-R agreed to leave the consortium, making P&W the majority shareholder. The remaining members of IAE have agreed to extend their partnerships to 2045.

SAM146The SaM146 engine powers the new Sukhoi Superjet 100 family of regional jets. The engine is a complete propulsion system comprising engine nacelle and equipment, featuring a single-stage high-pressure turbine and a high-pressure compressor with a reduced number of stages and parts.

PowerJet is responsible for all aspects of the SaM146 engine programme including the design, production, marketing, sales and services.

Snecma is responsible for the core engine, control systems, transmission (accessory gearbox, transfer gearbox), overall engine integration and flight testing.

NPO Saturn is responsible for the components in the low-pressure section and engine installation on the Superjet 100.

The engine underwent its first ground tests in July 2006 and its first engine flight tests began in December 2007. In May 2008, the first flight test of the SaM146 on the Sukhoi Superjet 100 was carried out and in May 2010, PowerJet completed all tests required for certification.

The type certificate for the SaM146 engine was issued by EASA in June 2010 and by the Russian certification body in August the same year.

Depending on the model (1S15, 1S17 or 1S18), the SaM146 develops between 15,400lb-thrust and 17,800lb-thrust to meet thrust requirements for the 70- to 120-seat regional jet class. The SaM146 meets the most stringent environmental standards both in terms of emissions as well as noise.

In April 2011, the first Sukhoi Superjet 100 was delivered to Armenian carrier Armavia, which ceased operations in April 2013.

As of May 2014, 21 Superjet 100s were in service, while the order backlog stood at 96. Aeroflot Russian Airlines and Mexican carrier Interjet each operated seven Superjets and showed a backlog of 20 and 13 respectively. Indonesia- based Kartika Airlines had an order backlog of 30 aircraft.

JT9DTThe JT9D represented P&W’s entry into the high-thrust, high-bypass ratio engine market. It was developed to power the Boeing 747, which entered service in 1970.

The JT9D family of engines comprises three distinct series. The JT9D-7 engine covers the 46,300lb-thrust to 50,000lb-thrust range, and the JT9D-7Q series has a 53,000lb-thrust rating. The later -7R4 series, introduced in 1982, covers the 48,000lb-thrust to 56,000lb-thrust range. These three engine types power 747, 767, A300, A310 and DC-10 aircraft.

P&W continues to invest in and support the JT9D family of engines. Upgrade programmes are in place to enable operators to improve durability, increase thrust and reduce noise. These update programmes are provided as JT9D Reduced Cost of Ownership Kits.

The JT9D has flown more than 169 million total hours to date. More than 600 aircraft take-offs are accomplished with JT9Ds every day.

JT9D production ended in 1990. A total of 49 JT9D powered aircraft were still active in May 2014.

PRATT & WHITNEY Pratt & Whitney was established in 1925 by Frederick Rentschler as part of United Aircraft and Transport Corporation (which later became known simply as the United Aircraft Corporation, and from 1975 as United Technologies). P&W manufactures products widely used in both civil and military aircraft. P&W began producing commercial jet engines in the late 1950s for the Boeing 707 and the Douglas DC-8, with models including the JT3 and the JT4A. The 727, 737 and DC-9 were later powered by the JT8D. P&W commercial engines have logged more than 1 billion hours of flight powering both the narrowbody and widebody aircraft that fly passengers and cargo around the world. In September 2013, P&W and R-R announced that they had abandoned plans for a joint venture to develop an engine to power future narrowbodies. P&W added that they would independently continue to invest in and develop applications of its geared turbofan engine to power the next generation of mid-sized aircraft.

JT8DP&W introduced the JT8D to commercial aviation in 1964 on a Boeing 727-100.

There are eight models in the JT8D family, covering a thrust range of 14,000lb-thrust to 21,700lb-thrust and powering 727, 737-100/200, MD-80 and DC-9 aircraft. Since its introduction, more than 11,800 JT8D standard engines have been produced. The newer JT8D-200 series entered service in 1980, offering 18,500lb-thrust to 21,700lb-thrust. It is exclusively used in MD-80 series aircraft.

To ensure that the JT8D-200 stays current with environmental regulations, a low-emissions combustion system known as the E-Kit was developed. The E-Kit is FAR-25 certified and reduces JT8D-200 NOx emissions by 25%, unburned hydrocarbons by 99% and smoke by 52%. It exceeds all ICAO standards for newly-produced engines and it also qualifies for the Swiss Class 5 (cleanest) emissions category.

P&W and Aviation Fleet Solutions have jointly developed a noise reduction kit for JT8D-200-powered MD-80 aircraft, which was certified in 2006. As of May 2014, more than 700 JT8D powered aircraft were still in service.

PW4000The PW4000 was built as the successor to the JT9D in the high-thrust engine market and is certificated for a range of 52,000lb-thrust to 98,000lb-thrust. First delivered in 1987, the powerplant is now fitted on the 747, 767, 777, A300, A310, A330 and MD-11.

There are three PW4000 families, based on fan diameters: 94in, 100in and 112in. The PW4000 94in fan covers 52,000lb-thrust to 62,000lb-thrust. Approved for 180min ETOPS, equipped with FADEC and featuring single-crystal superalloy materials, it powers the 747-400, 767-200/300, MD-11, A300-600 and A310-300.

The PW4000 100in fan has a capability of 64,500lb-thrust to 70,000lb-thrust and was specifically developed for the A330. It entered service in 1994 with 90min ETOPS approval and was approved for 180min ETOPS in 1995.

The latest version – the PW4170 Advantage 70 – received US Federal Aviation Administration certification on 22 December 2008 and entered service in 2009 with the A330-200 Freighter. It is offered both as a new engine and as an upgrade to existing engines.

The PW4000 112in fan entered service in 1995 as the launch engine for the 777. It is the largest P&W commercial engine offering 74,000lb-thrust to 98,000lb-thrust. The PW4098, with 84,000lb-thrust, was the first engine to enter service already approved for 180min ETOPS, and was subsequently approved for 207min, the maximum allowable, along with all other PW4000 112in models.

A higher-thrust version of the engine, the 90,000lb-thrust PW4090, powers an increased gross-weight 777. The 98,000lb-thrust PW4098 powers the 777 up to 660,000lb take-off weight.

More than 880 PW4000-powered aircraft were in service in May 2014.

PW2000The PW2000 was developed for the Boeing 757 in order to compete with R-R’s RB211.

The engine entered service in 1984 with Delta Air Lines, which was the civil aviation launch customer for the type.

The PW2000 covers a range of 37,000lb-thrust to 43,000lb-thrust. It was the first commercial engine with FADEC technology. An improved version of the PW2000, the Reduced Temperature Configuration (RTC), was introduced in 1994.

The PW2000 is certified to operate 180min extended twin-engined operations (ETOPS) and meets all current and proposed noise and emissions regulations around the world.

There are three models of the PW2000 engine: PW2037, PW2040 and PW2043. Introduced into service in 1991 as the F117-PW-100, the PW2040 is exclusively used on the four-engined Boeing C-17 Globemaster III military transport. The model also powers the US Air Force C-32A, the military version of the 757.

The current build standard, launched in 1994, is the PW2043 which provides 43,000lb-thrust. This model is the latest in the series to power the 757 and the 757-300. The improved model is known as the PW2000 RTC.

MTU Aero Engines holds a 21.2% stake in the engine, having developed the low-pressure turbine and turbine exit casing as well as critical parts of the turbine exhaust casing, high-pressure compressor and high-pressure turbine.

More than 300 PW2000-powered 757s were in service in May 2014.

on an A340-600.

The testbed aircraft, with the engine in the number two pylon position, flew for the first time from Toulouse in October 2008.

The PW1000G was chosen by Airbus to power the re-engined A320neo after P&W failed to reach an agreement with R-R to offer the engine jointly through the IAE venture, which also includes JAEC and MTU Aero Engines. As of May 2014, the P&W powered A320neo is moving rapidly towards flight testing as Airbus completes assembly of the first airframe, which is due to fly in the fourth quarter of 2014 and enter service a year later.

The PW1000G has also been selected for the Mitsubishi MRJ regional jet (PW1200G), Bombardier CSeries airliner (PW1500G) and is offered as an option on the United Aircraft (UAC) Irkut MS-21 (PW1400G). It has also been selected as the exclusive engine for Embraer’s new second generation E-Jet aircraft family. Scheduled to enter service in 2018, the Embraer E-Jet E2 family of aircraft will be equipped with the PW1700G and PW1900G engines.

In March 2011, Indian low-cost carrier IndiGo selected the PW1000G to power up to 150 updated A320s. The operator signed a memorandum of understanding with Airbus, becoming the launch customer for the new variant, which is due for entry into service in October 2015.

P&W completed the first flight of the PW1217G for the MRJ on P&W’s 747SP on 30 April 2012, beginning the year-long flight testing phase for engine certification. The first delivery of the 78-92 passenger MRJ aircraft has been delayed until the summer of 2015.

The Bombardier CSeries made its maiden flight in September 2013 and is due to enter service in 2015.

As of May 2014, the overall PW1000G order backlog stood at 1,229 for the A320neo (676), MRJ (165), CSeries (156), E-Jet E2 (150) and MS-21 (82) combined. There were also 1,031 A320neo family aircraft on order for which an engine selection had yet to be announced.

PW6000The high-bypass PW6000 turbofan was designed for the Airbus A318 and was first delivered in 2007 after development delays. It has a design range of 18,000lb-thrust to 24,000lb-thrust. The PW6000 powers a total of 15 A318s, 12 of which are operated by Avianca Brazil and three by LAN Airlines.

Overall, the engine has a small market share and there have been no orders for it since its last deliveries in 2008. MTU has been responsible for assembling the PW6000 under licence in Hannover, although there are no engines currently on order.

PW1000GPW1000G is the designation for P&W’s new high-bypass geared turbofan, previously known as the Advanced Technology Fan Integrator (ATFI). The engine has been in development for many years and the manufacturer has invested more than $1 billion in the technology.

P&W claims that the PW1000G delivers a 12-15% reduction in fuel burn, with up to 15% reduction in CO2 emissions and up to 50% in NOx emissions and engine noise. The powerplant uses an advanced gear system which allows the engine’s fan to operate at a different speed from the low-pressure compressor turbine.

MTU is responsible for supplying the PW1000G’s high speed, three-stage low-pressure turbine and half of the powerplant’s eight-stage high-pressure compressor. The engine was tested on the P&W-owned 747SP, and the second phase of flight testing was conducted

RB211The RB211 family of high-bypass turbofan engines are capable of generating 37,400lb-thrust to 60,600lb-thrust and are divided into three series: RB211-22, RB211-524 and RB211-535.

The RB211-22 came into service in 1972 on the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar aircraft, a year later than originally planned. It was officially superseded by the Trent series in the 1990s.

The RB211-524 entered service in 1977 with British Airways on the 747-200. The RB211-524G, rated at 58,000lb-thrust, and the RB211-

ROLLS-ROYCERolls-Royce was founded in 1906 by Henry Royce and Charles Rolls, and produced its first aircraft engine in 1914. The company has produced commercial jet engines since the 1950s, beginning with the Avon for the de Havilland Comet and the Sud Aviation Caravelle. The Conway engine came to prominence in the early 1960s and was fitted on the 707, DC-8 and the Vickers VC10. The Spey engine, also produced in the 1960s, was designed for the BAC One-Eleven and the three-engined Hawker Siddeley Trident.

The development of a high-bypass turbofan engine forced R-R into bankruptcy and it was nationalised by the British government in 1971. However, the company survived and, thanks to the RB211 – the first true three-spool engine – it became a global player in the airline industry. R-R engines are now in service around the world on more than 20 types of commercial aircraft including various narrowbody, widebody and regional jets and powers more than 2,000 aircraft.

In September 2013, R-R and P&W announced that they had abandoned plans for a joint venture to develop an engine to power future narrowbodies. The two engine makers had in October 2011 declared their intention to pursue the collaboration, to be focused on high-bypass ratio geared turbofan technology to power aircraft in the 120- to 230-seat segment.

In February 2014, R-R announced the development of two new Trent-based engines – ready for service in 2020 and 2025 – which it says will deliver fuel efficiencies of up to 10% over the Trent XWB.

SpeyThe R-R Spey was designed in the late 1950s and came into service in 1964 on a Hawker Siddeley Trident aircraft operated by British European Airways.

The engine has powered both military and civil aircraft types, with more than 1,000 aircraft fitted in its history and over 50 million flying hours accumulated.

The Spey engine is now mainly used in the business aviation sector on the Gulfstream II and III.

Only three Spey powerplants are still in service now for commercial operation on the Fokker F28.

BR700The BR700 engine family was developed by BMW and R-R through the joint venture company BMW R-R to power regional and corporate jets.

R-R took full control of the company in 2000. The first BR700 entered service on the Gulfstream V in 1997 and entered service on the Boeing 717 in 1999.

Production of the 717 ceased in 2006 and there were more than 150 BR700-powered 717s in service in May 2014.

524H, certificated at 60,600lb-thrust, were developed in response to the larger 747-400. They were the first versions to feature FADEC. The -524H model entered service with British Airways in 1990 and achieved 180min ETOPS approval on the 767 three years later.

In 1997, the RB211-524G/H engines were upgraded with high pressure (HP) turbine systems – technology developed on the Trent 700 engine family. These variants (designated as RB211-524G/H-T) are 200lb lighter, offer 40% lower NOx emissions and 2% lower fuel burn. The RB211-524 is the first engine to achieve more than 27,500h on wing. The -524 fleet has now logged nearly 66 million flying hours, and almost 12.5 million flight cycles.

The RB211-535 entered service in 1983 as a launch engine on the new 757. In 1988, American Airlines ordered 50 757s powered by the RB211-524E4. It is more reliable and quieter than its direct competitor, the PW2037, but is not as efficient. The engine was also selected to power the Tupolev Tu-204-120. It entered service in 1992 and was the first Western engine to power a Russian airliner. In 1990, it achieved 180min ETOPS approval on the 757.

The RB211-535 is currently in service with more than 60 operators and powers 603 aircraft including more than 450 Boeing 757s around the world. It has accumulated over 60 million flying hours and around 24 million cycles.

TayDerived from the Spey, the R-R Tay was first run in 1984. The Tay family powers the Fokker 70 and 100 regional jets as well as business jets including the Gulfstream IV family. It was also used to re-engine the 727 but is no longer used on this aircraft.

In May 2014, there were 186 active Tay engines in commercial application in the world, all powering Fokker 70 and 100 aircraft.

TrentThe Trent is a development of the RB211 and, like its predecessor, it uses a three-spool design. It was first delivered in 1995 on the A330, and on the 777 the following year. The Trent is now exclusively fitted to the A340-500/600, with its first deliveries on that aircraft taking place during 2002.

There are six variants, including the Trent 500, 700, 800, 900, 1000 and the XWB. The Trent is one of two engine options for the A380 and the 787. The Trent XWB is currently the only engine available on the A350 XWB.

Trent 700 was the first engine in the family. Optimised for the A330 family to deliver power requirements for all weights of that aircraft, it entered service in 1995 with Cathay Pacific. It is rated at 72,000lb-thrust and received 180min ETOPS approval in 1996.

Designed for the 777 family, the Trent 800 entered service in 1996. It provides between 75,000lb-thrust to 95,000lb-thrust and is the lightest engine in its class.

The Trent 500 came into service in August 2002 with Virgin Atlantic. The variant is optimised for the A340 aircraft to deliver requirements of 53,000lb-thrust and 56,000lb-thrust for the A340-500 and A340-600 respectively.

The Trent 900 is an engine option on the A380 family and is certified at 70,000lb-thrust, 72,000lb-thrust, 76,000lb-thrust and 80,000lb-thrust.

The Trent 1000 was selected in April 2004 by Boeing as one of the two engine options to power the 787 Dreamliner. On 26 October 2011, the first Trent-powered 787 entered into service with ANA on a flight from Tokyo to Hong Kong.

The Trent XWB was designed specifically for the A350 XWB family. It is to be the sixth member of the Trent family and have the largest fan designed for a R-R engine. The Trent XWB is due to power the A350-800 and -900, the A350-900 Freighter and the ultra-long-range A350-900R, providing a single engine type across the aircraft family.

Certification of the Trent XWB was awarded by EASA in February 2013 while the A350 maiden flight occurred in June. The A350 is expected to debut before the end of 2014 with Qatar Airways as its launch customer.

In February 2014, R-R announced the development of two new Trent-based engines – ready for service in 2020 and 2025 – which it says will deliver fuel efficiencies of up to 10% over the Trent XWB. The later of the two engines could use open-rotor technology for the first time. Product names for the engines have yet to be announced.

As of May 2014, there were 996 Trent-powered aircraft in service in the world, with 1,196 on order.

AE 3007The R-R AE 3007 entered into service in 1995 and is used on regional, corporate and military aircraft. The Embraer ERJ family is the regional aircraft powered by this engine with more than 650 in commercial operation.

The ERJ fleet continues to grow, with more than 23 million flight hours accumulated on the AE 3007A series of powerplants, contributing to a total 32 million flight hours on the engine.

explanatory notes

This census data covers all engines powering commercial jet aircraft in service or on firm order with airlines worldwide.

The information has been compiled by Flightglobal Insight using the Ascend Online Fleets database.

The information is correct up to 19 May 2014 and excludes non-airline operators, such as leasing companies and the military.

Engines are listed in alphabetical order, first by manufacturer and then type. The figures are for fitted

engines only and don’t include spares.Operators are listed by region. Fleet data comprises

the number of installed engines on the in-service fleet and, where applicable, the number of installed engines for the outstanding firm aircraft orders in parentheses in the right-hand column. The census does not include any parked aircraft/engines at the time of the data extraction.

The region is listed by operator base and does not necessarily indicate the area of operation. Options and letters of intent (where a firm contract has not been signed)

are not included. Orders by, and aircraft with, leasing companies are excluded, unless a confirmed end-user is known – in which case the aircraft is shown against the airline concerned.

Operators’ fleets include leased aircraft/engines. Aircraft/engines being operated on wet-lease are generally listed with the company for which they are being operated, and not the airline flying the aircraft on their behalf.

The outstanding firm orders information includes airline holding companies.
