AWAS has chosen CFM International’s CFM56-5B engine to power 10 new Airbus A320ceo (current engine option). The aircraft are part of a 15-aircraft order the company announced with Airbus on June 23 and the engine order is valued at $320 million at list price.
Dublin-based AWAS became a direct order CFM56-5B customer in 2008 with an order to power 45 firm and up to 55 option A320 family aircraft. Today, the company has more than 150 CFM-powered aircraft under management.
“We have been very pleased with the CFM56-5B engines in our portfolio,” said David Siegel, chief executive officer of AWAS. “Our customers really appreciate the operating economics and reliability of the engine.”
