GE continues to add CF34 operators to expanding regional customer base

GE Aviation continues to add CF34 operators to its expanding regional fleet, totaling more than 190 customers across the world. The CF34 engine family recently surpassed 5,500 engine deliveries with more than 82 million flight hours and 66 million cycles. “For two decades, the CF34 engine has offered our customers unmatched reliability, performance and value,” said Allen Paxson, general manager of the CF34 program at GE Aviation. “We’re building on the CF34 field experience and investing in new component technologies to prepare ourselves for the next generation NG34.”  The NG34 technology program will incorporate GE’s fuel-efficient, low emission eCore, which will offer 15-20% better fuel efficiency than the industry-leading CF34-10E engine. Leveraging GEnx technology, the core will incorporate advanced material, unique cooling technologies and new 3-D aerodynamic design airfoils.
