Chosen by Textron Aviation
Proven by GE
Since 2008, GE has invested in building a Business & General Aviation program focused on pushing the boundaries of engine technology. While the broad aviation segment has been a source of immense technical innovation, technology in the turboprop engine space has been largely dormant over the past 50+ years.
Leveraging our significant resources, domain expertise and proven technologies, GE announced the all-new advanced turboprop engine in November 2015. Textron Aviation has selected this engine to power its new Cessna Denali airplane, thus combining the best of both clean sheet aircraft and new engine designs.
By utilizing technologies proven on other GE engine platforms, we’re balancing “all-new” with “low risk + high value” for business and general aviation operators.
