More CFM56-5B engines ordered by Delta to power additional A321ceo aircraft

Delta Air Lines has selected CFM International’s CFM56-5B engine to power 30 additional A321ceo aircraft announced May 11, 2017. These A321 aircraft will join more than 200 CFM-powered A319/A320/A321 aircraft Delta currently operates. The airline is using the higher-capacity aircraft to gradually replace less-efficient domestic aircraft that will be retired from its fleet.
