In a recent report published in aviationweek.com, MTU Aero Engines announced significant progress in reducing #overhaul times for PW1000G geared-turbofan (GTF) engines. According to the article, the time required for some GTF engine overhauls has now dropped below 100 in-shop days. This improvement comes after a peak in the number of GTF-powered #aircraft needing #unscheduled #maintenance, #repair, and overhaul (MRO) services during the second quarter.
Lars Wagner, CEO of MTU Aero Engines, expressed optimism, stating, “Our efforts to improve turnaround times for GTF MRO shop visits are beginning to bear first fruits.” MTU Aero Engines is a key partner in the Pratt & Whitney #engine program.
