So trader you have to revisit and repeat that the LEAP train has left the station. But this time you change it to missed the boat. Moved from trains to boats. lol Do you still challenge Rene's statement, offered as late as late November that no decision has been made on the LEAP yet. Like you did on Rene's promise re ge bulk orders and that arcam would be on ge engines which were proven wrong. We all know that all those posts that you made saying that the leap and arcam blades had been approved (wrong) and that Leap engines, citing 30, wee already in production WRONG
Truth is the LEAPS and blades were still undergoing testing/approval process and were when you made all those statements and that leap volume production has not started yet. Best case, such production will start in mid 2016. Heck in a recent post you even stated that the 10 printers just purchased would be used to produce engines for testing. You cannot have it both ways.
I don't know whether arcam will be on the leap now or in the near future. Nor does Rene per his own statement. BUt what rene has said, and I concur, is that the train/boat has not left as you keep posting and that the jury is still out. Wait for data before you become scared of potential competition or make conclusions re weak premises. I simply agree with Rene that the jury is still out and won't be decided till at least volume production and testing finishes and no train or boat has left yet. Before getting scared, and posting all about your fears and laments, lets wait till we see some real data, the final approved LEAP when it enters production, whether there are possible improvements and till new technology is proven to be commeercilized
