Boeing has selected UTC Aerospace Systems’ Aerostructures to extend its provision of complete nacelle systems for the 787 to include the 787-10 variant.
UTC was awarded the contract to provide inlets, thrust reversers, fan cowls and exhaust systems for both the GE and Rolls-Royce engine options on the 787-8 and 787-9 in 2004.
The 787-10 agreement covers design and manufacture of nacelle systems for those engine variants for the higher capacity version of the 787.
UTC will also supply aftermarket support of the 787-10 nacelle systems through its global network of MRO facilities and spares distribution centers.
