SMBC Aviation Capital Selects Pratt & Whitney PurePower Engines

Will Accompany Order Of A320neo Airplanes

SMBC Aviation Capital has chosen Pratt & Whitney's PW1100G-JM engine to power 30 of its Airbus A320neo aircraft. Deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2017.

The PurePower engine family has completed 19,000 hours and 34,000 cycles of full engine testing, including 5,000 hours of flight time.

"The lessor community is very important to Pratt & Whitney and we are honored to provide our game-changing PurePower engines for SMBC Aviation Capital," said Greg Gernhardt, president, Pratt & Whitney Commercial Engines.

"Customers continue to select the PurePower engine because they recognize they are investing in their future since no other engine today can deliver similar value in terms of reductions in noise, fuel burn, emissions and overall cost savings."
