Congratulations to Arcam longs!


This is very exciting news......

In order for GE to proceed with full production of the GE9X engine using the Arcam produced LPT blades, means the engine has clearly received FAA approval. This is an absolute game changer for EBM.


From an older post:

FAA food for thought ....

I haven't seen any specific information indicating that the fuel nozzles have received specific FAA approval as an engine sub-component. We do know they are a component in engines being manufactured.

If anyone has seen where the nozzles have receive FAA approval as a component, please post what you found.

There is something referred to as "flow-down-approval". Basically GE makes an engine that has thousands of components. Each one does not get specific FAA approval. That usually happens prior to replacements being made available in the aftermarket.

The engine approval simply flows down to many of the individual parts.

If we see that one of the engines has received FAA approval and know that the LPT blades were made using EBM, then the blades by default, have been approved.
