GE Aviation’s Multi-Billion Order at the 2017 Paris Air Show


Founded in 1993, Parametric Solutions Inc. specializes in gas turbine engine solutions for the aircraft and industrial power industries. Among the firm’s many clients is GE Aircraft Engines. In 2015, Parametric Solutions Inc. assembled a prototype gas turbine engine for GE aircraft engines which GE videotaped and posted on YouTube. 

The company that gave the United States its first jet engine, GE, through its subsidiary GE Aviation, is a global leader in providing general aviation, commercial, business, and military jet and turboprop engines and parts. It also offers electrical power systems, mechanical systems, and avionics for aircraft and supports these offerings with a global service network. 

At the Paris Air Show held last June, GE Aviation announced that along with its joint venture partners, spearheaded by CFM International, it had received over $31 billion in orders and commitments during the event. Included in the agreements were over 1,700 GE and CFM engines and a full range of engine maintenance offerings. Orders and commitments came from China Eastern Airlines, Spring Airlines, EVA Airways, Delta Airlines, VEB Leasing, and a host of other companies.
