Fifteen months from now, a cruise ship is scheduled to depart from Miami and travel around the world, visiting all seven continents and hitting over 150 destinations in more than 60 countries. Deep inside the ship’s belly, powering it throughout its voyage, will be GE technology.
The U.S. Air Force and GE have successfully concluded testing on GE’s second XA100 adaptive cycle engine at the Air Force’s Arnold Engineering Development Complex (AEDC). With testing at AEDC completed, GE has accomplished the final major contract milestone of the Air Force’s Adaptive Engine Transition Program (AETP).
Meet the GE field service team that prepared the behemoth GE9X engine for demonstration flights at Farnborough International Airshow.
Dubbed the Woodstock of aviation, and officially known as EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, it’s the largest and perhaps greatest of all airshows, gathering pilots, engineers, industry executives, and superfans of all ages to celebrate the best in the business and the stars of tomorrow. Here is a summary of Avio Aero and GE Aviation’s successful week in Wisconsin.
Logan Mueller’s work-life epiphany came in October 2018, in the middle of her first 12-hour ultramarathon. Mueller is an avid runner, but on a 2.2-mile loop she hit a wall around the eight-hour mark. The temperature had crept up to the nineties and she was losing...
From the basketball court to the GE offices, Na’Shawnda Mitchell strives to empower everyone she works with so that the team can bring their best assets forward. Her coaching career began when she was just 22, and she’s able to pull from her coaching skills to aid in the separation of the three GE companies.
After more than nine years of service in the British Army, Jonathan Emery decided to apply for the GE Aviation Military Officer Leadership Programme (MOLP). Just three years later, he’s a finalist in the Rising Star category of the British Ex-Forces in Business...
From hybrid electric to sustainable aviation fuel, GE is at the Farnborough International Airshow to lead conversation about the innovative steps it will take to achieve a more sustainable future of flight. It’s been four years since the last in-person Farnborough Airshow, and GE will be on the ground to give you the latest information. Below is a live recap of the latest deals and stories.
Front and center at this week’s Farnborough International Airshow are technologies to help reduce CO2 emissions from flight. At GE, there are technologies already available now to help customers decarbonize even as engineers are developing the new breakthrough technologies for the future of flight.
The aviation industry has an ambitious goal. The target is to reach net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050 through a mix of revolutionary aircraft and propulsion technologies, alternative fuels and operational improvements.
With the summer holiday season underway, air travel has bounced back from its lockdown doldrums. But so has the awareness of commercial aviation’s impact on the climate. Airlines and aircraft and engine manufacturers want to be part of the conversation. Take Airbus...
After years of maturing components of high-power hybrid electric systems, GE announced its latest testing milestone at this week’s Farnborough International Airshow.
Delta has been operating CFM engines continuously since 1982. And now it’s just ordered 200 CFM LEAP-1B engines to power its new fleet of Boeing 737 10 aircraft. The order includes options for 60 additional engines.
At the Farnborough International Airshow, GE announced it completed the world’s first test of a megawatt (MW)-class and multi-kilovolt (kV) hybrid electric propulsion system in altitude conditions that simulate single-aisle commercial flight.
When Alex Hills first saw the video rendering of the #CFMRISE open fan engine demonstrator he thought, “Wouldn’t it be cool if there was a physical model?” So he decided to reverse engineer one.
Today’s aviation industry relies on technology that’s rooted in NASA’s research. This week at Farnborough, NASA will spotlight its work on sustainable aviation and the advances it’s making with partners like GE to develop quieter, safer and more efficient technologies that promise to change the future of commercial air travel.
Progress testing next-generation engines and continued global competitiveness with in-production engines highlight GE’s strong military portfolio entering the 2022 Farnborough International Airshow. GE is in the midst of major test campaigns for transformational...
It’s been four years since aviation fans, industry executives, aerospace engineers and investors last descended on the local airport in Farnborough, a quiet town about an hour southwest of London. Normally, the Farnborough International Airshow takes place every two...
GE announced GE to Net Zero, a new digital experience at the GE Pavilion during the upcoming 2022 Farnborough International Airshow where visitors will be able to learn more about the company’s efforts to meet its ambition to be net-zero by 2050, associated with the use of sold products.
GE is developing technologies to reduce CO2 emissions for a more sustainable future of flight. This includes innovating advanced new engine architectures such as open fan through the CFM International joint venture, megawatt-class hybrid electric propulsion, advanced new engine core designs, and supporting alternative fuels research.
