MTU Aero Engines benefits from Republic Airways

Republic Airways has signed a purchase agreement with Bombardier Aerospace for 40 CSeries aircraft with options on up to 40 additional aircraft. The twin-engined airliner is exclusively powered by the Pratt & Whitney PurePower PW1000G engine. MTU Aero Engines is a major stakeholder in this innovative, next-generation propulsion system. The overall contract covers more than 160 engines, if all options are exercised. For MTU Aero Engines it could translate into sales of over 200 million euros at list price.
