Delta will service 5,000 PW1100G and PW1500G engines

 

Delta announced yesterday that it is placing an order of 100 A321NEO with options for 100 more and they will all be equipped with PW1100G-JM engines. If this order represents an Airbus victory over Boeing, there is also something in it for Delta.

 

The Delta Airlines press release also announces the signing of an agreement that is a long-term commitment with Pratt & Whitney to have Delta Tec hops become a leading maintenance, repair and overhaul supplier for Pure Power PW1100G and PW1500G engines, powering Delta’s A321neo and C Series aircraft.

 

Under the terms of the agreement, Pratt & Whitney will upgrade 5,000 PW1100G and PW1500G engines to Delta TechOps. Taking into account that it will take more than ten years before there are 5 000 PWG engines on the American continent, Delta has just taken control of their overhaul for more than ten years in this region of the world.
