Welcome to Flightglobals Commercial Engines 2010 special report, brought to you in association with CFM International. The report provides an analytical overview of the commercial engine market as it stood on 1 March 2010, using information from Flightglobals leading ACAS eet database. The focus is on western-built mainline airliners (including freighters) and the jet engines currently powering the worlds commercial widebody and narrowbody aircraft. With new technology emerging and with airframers Airbus and Boeing looking to update their bestselling A320 and 737 narrowbody families and examine potential all-new successors, the worlds major engine manufacturers are quickly positioning themselves to acquire a foothold in the global share of the market. The LEAP-X1C from CFM will be the successor to the widely used CFM56 and Pratt & Whitney has already invested more than $1 billion in the geared turbofan (GTF) technology which will be used by the PW1000G. Both engines promise double-digit reductions in fuel consumption over todays powerplants, making them candidates for all-new narrowbodies in development or proposed, as well as for upgrades of Airbus and Boeings existing single-aisle aircraft. The report looks at the development of the jet engine since 1970 and also the next generation. It also examines in detail the multi-engine options available to the leading airframers and their current production aircraft. Engines from General Electric and its CFM joint venture dominate the widebody and narrowbody market groups, respectively, following progressive market share increases over the years. The CFM56 has an exclusive position on Boeings 737, and is currently the lead powerplant in terms of delivery share on the Airbus A320 family, where it competes with the International Aero Engines V2500. Several of the current widebody aircraft like the Airbus A330, A380 and Boeing 767 are offered with multi-engine options. Although a choice of power is still available on the early versions of the 777, the bulk of current production is of the new -200LR/300ER variants which come exclusively with GEs GE90 engine. Similarly, two of the three new widebody types in development - the A350 and 747-8 - have their powerplants supplied by a single manufacturer, Rolls-Royce and GE, respectively. Unlike its Airbus twinjet rival, The 787 is offered with both R-R and GE power. Our regional market share analysis identies the leading manufacturers and engine types being operated by the worlds active eet. Highlighting the leading market group operators by engine manufacturer, we also look at the signicant MRO contractors performing engine overhaul work. There is also analysis of Airbus and Boeing deliveries during the last 10 years and this is supplemented by detailed jet engine market statistics. We hope you nd this information useful and that the Commercial Engines 2010 special report provides you with a valuable reference source.

Multi-engine option analysis
Widebody Of the commercial widebody aircraft currently on offer, the Airbus A330 and A380 as well as the Boeing 767, 777 and the 787 are available with alternative options when it comes to the choice of powerplant. The engine manufacturers offering choices for widebodies are GE, P&W, R-R and Engine Alliance, a joint venture between GE and P&W. The Airbus A340-200/300 classic was offered with the CFM56, but the stretched -500 and -600 variants are offered exclusively with the Rolls-Royce Trent. The A350 will also be available with the Trent while the Boeing 747-8 is tted with the GE GEnx only. Narrowbody The commercial narrowbody engine battle is mainly fought between CFM and IAE for the Airbus A319, A320 and A321 aircraft. Pratt & Whitney also offers the PW6000 on the A318 but no orders are currently showing for that pairing. The Boeing 737 is exclusively offered with the CFM International CFM56. The early versions of the aircraft which entered the market in the late 1960s were powered by the P&W JT8D. The recently launched Bombardier CSeries programme will be tted with the Pratt & Whitney PW1000G geared turbofan powerplant, with the rst ight expected in 2010.

The Airbus A380 is the largest passenger airliner in the world being the rst full double-deck passenger aircraft. The A380 programme was launched in December 2000 as a rival to the Boeing 747 and was introduced in October 2007 with Singapore Airlines. The A380 was initially offered in two models: the A380800 original conguration and the A380-800F. The -800F was put on hold as Airbus prioritised the passenger version and all cargo orders were cancelled. Future variants may include the A380-900 stretch and an extended range version with the same passenger capacity as the A380-800. The powerplant options for the A380 are the Engine Alliance GP7200 and the Rolls-Royce Trent. The Trent currently powers 62% of the A380 in-service eet which is now at 26.

Nearly a third (31%) of GE engines are contracted out to its own engine services divisions worldwide, this accounts for 827 aircraft. In-house work features prominently (13%) and following closely is Air France Industries/KLM E&M which also has signicant presence by looking after 285 aircraft (11% market share). Like GE, Pratt & Whitney prefers to contract out engine overhaul jobs to its very own maintenance divisions which looks after 298 aircraft and represents just over a fth (21%) of the market. It is also a similar scenario in terms of in-house jobs, with 150 aircraft being serviced by their own operators around the world equating to a 10% share. Singapores SAESL and Hong Kongs HAESL both specialise in Roll-Royces (R-R) engine maintenance and it is therefore not surprising to see them dominating the overhaul work associated to these powerplants. Looking after a total of 542 aircraft, these two companies combined are actually maintaining nearly half (47%) of the worlds widebody market group using these engine types. Rolls-Royce themselves perform overhaul work on 199 aircraft and close behind with a 10% share are the operators utilising their own inhouse capability by servicing 109 aircraft.

GEs presence in the widebody engine market has expanded consistently in volume since the early 1970s, the manufacturer now powers the majority (48%) of the active commercial widebody eet worldwide. The Rolls-Royce RB211 came into service in 1972 on the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar aircraft and also powers the 747, 757 and 767 aircraft. The Trent is a development of the RB211 and was rst delivered in 1995 on the Airbus A330 and on the 777 the following year. It is also now the exclusive powerplant tted to the Airbus

Narrowbody Pratt & Whitney has been producing commercial engines since the late 1950s for aircraft such as the Boeing 707 and the Douglas DC-8 with engines including the JT3D, JT4A and JT8D. The company developed the PW2000 for the Boeing 757 in order to compete with the RB211 and was rst delivered in 1984. The PW6000 was designed for the Airbus A318 and was rst delivered in 2007. Rolls-Royce has also produced commercial narrowbody engines since the late 1950s with the Avon for the de Havilland Comet and the Sud Aviation Caravelle. The Conway engine came to prominence in the early 1960s and was tted to the 707, DC-8 and the Vickers VC10. The Spey engine was also produced in the 1960s and designed for the BAC One-Eleven and the

The next addition to the Rolls-Royce family of engines was the Tay which was used to re-engine the 727 from 1988. The BR700 came in 1999 on the Boeing 717 with 139 currently in-service. The eet development shows that although Rolls-Royce has been consistently present in the commercial narrowbody market for a considerable time, its eet size hasnt expanded much over the years.

The engine was rst delivered on the Boeing 737 in 1984 and on the Airbus A320 in 1988. The CFM56 is by a large margin the most widely used engine on commercial narrowbodies with a current market share of over 60%. International Aero Engines is a P&W, R-R, MTU and Japanese Aero Engine Corporation joint venture which was formed in 1983. The subsequent V2500 powerplant rst featured in 1989 on the A320, it also powers the A319, A320, and A321 variants and is also used on the MD-90.

Airbus and Boeing deliveries in last 10 years


Airbus and Boeing 2009 shipments reveal that while GE and its joint venture CFM International remain the dominant market players, Pratt & Whitneys participation has slipped to an all-time low. The Connecticutbased engine maker powered just 1% of all mainline jets delivered in 2009, down from 3% in 2008. A decade ago, P&W powered around 9% of the airliners delivered.
ENGINE MARKET SHARE DELIVERIES

GE and CFM are now established as the lead suppliers to Airbus, powering just over half of all its deliveries. Unsurprisingly, given their exclusive status on the 737 and later 777 models, they dominate at Boeing. In the last two years the GE/CFM share of Boeing deliveries reached a new high of 98%, having risen steadily from around 70% at the start of the decade.

AIRBUS/BOEING 2009 DELIVERIES BY AIRCRAFT CATEGORY

Airbus continues to be more reliant than Boeing on narrowbodies, with its single-aisle family representing 81% of its 2009 deliveries, against 77% for its rival. Both airframers should see the ratio shifting towards widebodies from 2011 as the delayed ramp-up of A380 and 787 production nally begins to take effect.

Pratt & Whitney currently has just one solid commercial application for its big fan engine: the A330. The prospect of more PW6000-powered A318s being sold looks slim, with just one operator of that version - LAN Airlines - and Airbus backlog for its smallest jet almost in single gures.

2009 LONG-RANGE MIDSIZE WIDEBODY TWINJET DELIVERIES

As P&Ws share declined, Rolls-Royce saw a gain in 2009, thanks largely to its success on the A330. IAE currently still provides strong competition for CFM on the Airbus narrowbodies, but the company struggles to match the market success of the middle of the last decade, when it was able to almost match its rival in deliveries.

AIRBUS/BOEING 2009 DELIVERIES BY REGION

European airlines were the single biggest recipients of new airliners in 2009 - an achievement driven by the continued hunger of the regions low-cost carriers. Boeing has a big part to play here with Ryanair as an exclusive customer and the region accounted for just over one-fth of its 2009 deliveries.

Unsurprisingly, Europe was Airbus most important market in 2009, accounting for 38% of its deliveries. Similarly, North America was Boeings lead sector with one-third of its total deliveries. Airbus has struggled to match Boeings success in Europe, with its rivals home patch only accounting for 19% of its deliveries.

THE NEXT GENERATION


AIRLINER FINANCE DEALS ANNOUNCED IN 2008 WITH ANALYSIS Emerging engine technology BY OPERATOR/LESSOR The worlds major engine manufacturers are preparing to battle it out for a share of the spoils as airframers Airbus and Boeing look to update their best-selling A320 and 737 narrowbody families. General Electric/Snecma joint venture CFM International is well advanced with work on its contender, the LEAP-X, which was recently boosted by its selection to power Chinas indigenous Comac C919 150-seat airliner. CFMs arch rival International Aero Engines, comprising partners Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce, MTU Aero Engines and Japanese Aero Engine Corporation, is formulating its own strategy, driven by Airbus, which wants to launch its A320 re-engining project in time for the Farnborough air show in July 2010. The consortium will have to decide whether to offer a further development of its successful V2500, a derivative of P&Ws PW1000G geared turbofan - already selected for the Bombardier CSeries and Mitsubishi MRJ regional jet - or an all-new engine.

CFM International
CFM, the 50-50 joint venture between General Electric and Snecma, is most famous for building the CFM56 turbofans, an engine that now powers nearly 8,500 commercial and military aircraft including the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737. CFM has been working on a replacement for the CFM56 since 1999 and the LEAP-X1C turbofan is the successor of the CFM56 line. The engine should enter service in 2016 after 16 years of development. The LEAP-X has heritage from technology developed over the past 10-15 years by GE and Snecma with engines such as the GE90 and GEnx. The X1C fan will have a 190.5cm diameter with 18 blades, compared with 36 titanium blades for a CFM56-5C and 24 blades for a CFM56-7B. Combined with a new lighter fan containment structure, total weight savings will be 455kg per aircraft. CFM has at this point completed full-scale, aerodynamic, acoustic, birdstrike and blade-out tests on the new fan. The LEAP-X1C has been selected by Chinas Comac for its C919, a 150-passenger single-aisle twinjet set to enter service in 2016.

The LEAP-X1C will have 18 blades

General Electric
General Electrics CF6 engine has been a dominant force in commercial widebody aviation for decades. The GE90 turbofan was specially designed for the Boeing 777 and was introduced in 1995. The GE90 series are physically the largest engines in aviation history. The GE-90-115B holds the world record for thrust totalling 127,900lbs of thrust. The GEnx (General Electric Next-generation) is the successor to the CF6 and is based on the GE90s architecture. The GEnx is an engine option on the Boeing 787 and is the exclusive powerplant on the 747-8. The GEnx is intended to replace the CF6 in GEs production line. GE is in partnership with Pratt & Whitney forging the Engine Alliance, a company responsible for the GP7200 engine designed for the Airbus A380. GE is also a partner with Snecma in CFM International.
The GEnx will be available on both 787 and 747-8

International Aero Engines


IAE was formed in 1983 to develop the V2500 engine powering the Airbus A319/A320/A321 and the Boeing MD-90. The IAE partners - P&W, Rolls-Royce, MTU and Japanese Aero Engine Corporation - are discussing how to address the competitive threat posed by the emergence of rival CFM Internationals LEAP-X advanced turbofan. At the heart of the dilemma for the IAE partners is whether to adopt P&Ws GTF architecture for any potential V2500 successor.
The V2500 is currently tted on 15% of the worlds commercial narrowbodies

Pratt & Whitney


Pratt & Whitneys geared turbofan (GTF) concept has been in development for many years as the manufacturer invested more than $1 billion in the technology. The GFT delivers a 12-15% reduction in fuel burn and 20-25% when installed on a next generation aircraft. It also provides up to 15% reduction in CO2 emissions, up to 50% in NOx emissions and up to 50% in engine noise. Renamed the PW1000G in mid-2008, the engine should enter into service in 2013. The engine has been selected for the Mitsubishi MRJ regional jet, Bombardier CSeries airliner and is offered as an option on the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) manufactured Irkut MS-21. The rst production engine for the CSeries programme is due to go to test in mid-July 2010. MTU is responsible for supplying the GTFs highspeed, three-stage low-pressure turbine and half of the powerplants eight-stage high-pressure compressor - the same sections it supplies for the PW800. MTU is also responsible for assembling the A318s PW6000 under licence in Hanover, although the orderbook has run dry since the last of its 34 engines were handed over to sole customer LAN Airlines of Chile. It is possible that MTU could seek a European assembly line for future derivatives of the GTF to supplement its PW6000 work. Pratt & Whitney hopes that the GTF will in the future power rejuvenated A320s or 737s.

P&W has invested more than $1 billion in the GTF technology

Rolls-Royce
Rolls-Royce is also in the frame to power future singleaisle airliner families from Airbus and Boeing. Although Rolls-Royce and Pratt & Whitney are partners in IAE, the companies have different approaches to engine development for next generation narrowbodies. R-R has consistently rejected the geared turbofan concept, preferring instead to research advanced twoand three-shaft turbofans, known as the RB282 and RB285, respectively. R-R believe that their design can deliver the same efciency benets as the GTF, without the need for a gearbox to decouple the fan. Rolls-Royce will in 2011 begin to feel the benet of the Boeing 787 production, as the UK maker is lead powerplant supplier on the Dreamliner with itsTrent 1000. Also, the Trent XWB will be the exclusive engine delivered with the Airbus A350 when it is expected to enter service during 2013.
