Bombardier and Airbus could have a final assembly line in the U.S. up and running within a year of a go-ahead. | Embraer has not yet received a proposal from Boeing for a possible combination of the manufacturers, Embraer Commercial Aviation President and CEO John Slattery said at the Singapore Airshow. | | Indonesia is in talks with Western manufacturers about a possible fighter order and is considering the Eurofighter Typhoon and Lockheed Martin F-16V. | Flight testing of the Mitsubishi Aircraft MRJ has addressed the areas of greatest risk, the company said. | | Only Rolls-Royce and GE Aviation are expected to respond, since Pratt & Whitney is concentrating on engines for narrowbody aircraft. | The focus is on the GE90 that powers the Boeing 777-300ER and 777-200LR, and the GE9X selected for the 777X. | | The civil helicopter market in China is less skewed toward the oil and gas sector than Southeast Asia’s helicopter market, and last year posted the strongest fleet growth in the region. | Singapore Component Solutions is the name of the new joint venture MRO between AFI KLM E&M and Sabena Technics. | | United Engine Corporation hopes to supply its future PD-35 engine for the Russo-Chinese CR929 widebody airliner. | | |
