Aircelle (Gonfreville-l’Orcher, France), a division of Safran (Paris, France), has been selected to supply nacelles for Airbus’ latest A330 version – the A330neo (new engine option) jetliner.
These nacelles will equip the A330neo’s two large Rolls-Royce Trent 7000 turbofan powerplants, and will use Aircelle’s experience gained in developing and supplying nacelles for the Airbus A380 jetliner’s high-thrust engines – which are in a similar size category.
“This is another endorsement of our company’s role as a world-leading engine nacelle supplier, and provides an important addition to our product line, which covers everything from business jets and regional passenger aircraft to the largest jetliners,” said Aircelle Chairman and CEO Martin Sion. “We are committed to making this project a success.”
