Podcast – Singapore Air Show Day 2

The highlights from Day 2.

Pratt's Geared Fan news

ATW has a neat story here. Eye popping numbers too – a 12% improvement in fuel burn compared with today's narrowbody engines, a 20%-25% reduction in noise (dBs) and a 70% reduction in NOx emissions versus CAEP 2.

This is the type of next generation in engine technology that will bring forward the next 737 and A320. Wish Pratt well. They are embarking on a strategy similar in risk to what Boeing did with the 787.
