For CFM Christmas is clearly early this year with a record Paris Air Show order book! |
LE BOURGET, France — 21 June 2017 — CFM International has secured a record number of orders during the 2017 Paris Air Show.
These included orders for 1,658 LEAP and CFM56 engines, in addition to long-term service agreements, at a value of more than $27.3 billion U.S. at list price.
The orders reflect the worldwide wholesale move to single-aisle aero fleets.
The company is set to leave the Show with a 2017 order book of more than 2,850 engines and total LEAP orders on the books for more than 14,000 engines.
“This air show has far surpassed all of our expectations,” said an excited Gaël Méheust, President and CEO of CFM International. “It is highly gratifying and humbling to have so many airlines put their faith in CFM to power and support their single-aisle fleets. Now, it is our job to reinforce, every day, that they have made the right choice.”
