Certified! P&WC PW207D1 And PW207D2 Turbines

Engines Will Power Bell 429 Helicopter

Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC) announced Thursday it has received Transport Canada type certification for its new PW207D1 and PW207D2 engines selected to power the Bell Helicopter 429.

New additions to the PW200 family, the PW207D1 and PW207D2 engines are marketed by P&WC Turbo Engines Corp. (P&WCTEC), a subsidiary of P&WC.

"We are very proud to be leveraging the extraordinary experience of our PW200 engine family with the latest proven technology to offer Bell Helicopter unprecedented levels of reliability and economy in these new engine models," says Keyvan Fard, Senior Vice President - Sales and Marketing of P&WC and member of the P&WCTEC board of directors.

The 429 is a clean-sheet design for Bell, and builds on the company's successful 206 and 412 programs. As of February, Bell claimed over 260 orders for the light twin-engine helicopter, including orders from law enforcement agencies, emergency medical services and off-shore operators.

Certification of the 429 is targeted before year's end.
