China Eastern Airlines has signed a 12-year V-Services Fleet Hour Agreement (FHA) for its 10 Airbus A320ceo aircraft. The V2500 engine service is offered through IAE International Aero Engines.
“China Eastern Airlines has been a leader in Chinese aviation since the late 1980s and the consistent expansion of our route options, and subsequently our fleet, has maintained our status,” said Feng Liang, vice president, China Eastern Airlines. “The A320ceo with V2500 engines is a superior aircraft, and with an FHA, our engines will run longer at peak performance between shop visits.”
“China Eastern Airlines has been our loyal partner for the Pratt & Whitney Shanghai Engine Center, which celebrated its five-year anniversary last year, and this services agreement continues the long-standing relationship,” said Greg Gernhardt, president, Pratt & Whitney Commercial Engines. “We are confident that our dependable service will allow China Eastern Airlines to maximize on-wing time and meet the needs of its customers.”
