GE9X

Boosting widebody production is a key strategic priority for Airbus, which might offer a larger A350 that could enter service in the early 2030s.

As part of Singapore’s plan to expand as an aerospace innovation and manufacturing hub, the country has signed MOUs with RTX and Rolls-Royce.

Boeing is reviewing a potential durability issue on the GE Aerospace GE9X engine powering the 777X.

The Middle East, as the crucible for challenging durability and performance conditions, is the focus for ongoing dust ingestion engine tests.

Boeing says a technical feasibility study of a stretched 777-10 derivative of the 777X family will be driven largely by takeoff performance requirements.

Emirates Airline President Tim Clark believes a stretched version of the 777-10 would only be available well into the 2030s, while he thinks it will be harder for Airbus to do larger variant of the A350 but would like that too.
