Engine Maker Expands Capacity to Reduce Turnaround Times
Pratt & Whitney is investing over $100 million in its US maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) network to reduce turnaround times for its geared turbofan (GTF) engines. The investment will expand capacity, add equipment, and support the company’s broader effort to move GTF engines through the overhaul process faster. According to AeroTime, the largest piece of the investment, $78 million, will go to facilities in Texas, with additional investments in West Palm Beach, Florida, and Springdale, Arkansas.
