ADDIS ABABA – Ethiopian Airlines has inaugurated its CFM Leap-1B engine test cell at Addis Ababa MRO Services facility which gives Ethiopian the full testing capability of Leap-1B engine, an exclusive powerplant for Boeing’s new-generation 737 MAX single-aisle jet.
Regarding the capacity leap, Ethiopian Airlines Group Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Mesfin Tasew said, “We feel proud for achieving full testing capability for the CFM Leap-1B engine at our modern MRO facility in Addis Ababa. The addition of this state-of-the-art facility will enable us to finalize the development of Performance Restoration Shop Visit (PRSV1) repair capability on the engine, which is expected to be ready very soon. We extend our appreciation to SAE, GE and the other partners who contributed to this success.”
