BOC Aviation has signed of a new agreement for firm orders of V2500 engines to power 14 new Airbus A320 family aircraft, the second order for this engine type this year.
“This order further underscores our confidence in the V2500 engine as a fuel-efficient workhorse for more than 150 aircraft in our history, and a significant portion of our A320 family fleet on order,” said Robert Martin, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer of BOC Aviation. “Our longstanding relationship with IAE enables us to provide an attractive airframe and engine solution for our global A320 family customer base.”
“We are pleased that BOC Aviation has selected the V2500 engine for additional A320ceo family aircraft,” said Greg Gernhardt, President of Pratt & Whitney Commercial Engines. “The V2500 engine has a strong track record of superior performance and has been chosen again as a reliable power plant for the A320ceo family aircraft for BOC Aviation, as well as its airline customers for many years.”
