Ge Aviation India Fact Sheet GE AVIATION INDIA FACT SHEET GE Aviation is a world-leading provider of jet and turboprop engines, components and integrated systems for commercial, military, business and general aviation aircraft. GE Aviation has a global service network to support these offerings. GE Aviation also supplies engines for marine applications. Meeting the needs of a growing nation India’s passenger traffic today is 160 million passengers, but that number is estimated to grow to 452 million1 by the end of the decade as a burgeoning middle class takes to the air, according to the aviation intelligence service CAPA - Centre for Aviation. Those numbers are another sign of India’s rapid growth, and just like GE’s energy, health, transportation and finance businesses, GE Aviation is proud to be a partner in the country’s development. GE’s industry leading GEnx and GE90 engines are based on proven architecture and superior technology, developed in the United States and refined based on inputs received from research centers across the globe. At GE, we work to innovate and develop technology solutions that improve quality of life in India. GE Aviation: Moving India Aviation in India is growing at a rapid pace as a growing middle class takes to the skies. With thousands of GE engines installed on the global fleet of commercial, business and general aviation aircrafts, GE is helping power aircrafts that are moving India. GE engines set the industry standard for fuel efficiency, reliability and outstanding service. India’s commercial airline fleet is expected to triple in the next two decades and GE Aviation is poised to meet the challenge of that rapid growth. GE Aviation is a leading provider of jet engines, components and integrated systems to Indian carriers. GE helps move India by ensuring that people and goods travel quickly and efficiently within the country and around the globe. Commercial Engines GE Aviation’s commercial jet engines power a wide variety of airframes. These engines lead the industry in their respective thrust classes and have set the standards in terms of reliability, maintainability and cost of ownership. GE’s CF6-50 engine began operating on Indian Airline’s Airbus A300 fleet almost 30 years ago, and this was followed by orders from Air Indian for CF6-80C2 engines to power its A310 aircraft. More recently, Air India ordered more than 100 GE and CFM*-powered aircraft in 2006. Other Indian airlines, including Jet Airways, SpiceJet and GoAir have also selected GE and CFM engines for their growing fleet. More than 450 GE and CFM engines are in-service in India with an additional 200 engines on order with local carriers. A Boeing 787 aircraft with GE engines GE provides OnPointSM solution agreements to its customers for the Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) of their engines at its overseas facilities. These facilities provide comprehensive material support, training and assistance on overhaul workscopes to Air India for GE90 engine. GE also provide technical support to Air India for MRO services on their 787 GEnx-1B engines. This places Air India among a select group of MROs capable of undertaking GEnx overhauls. Such an agreement also helps GEnx customers in the region save costs, while being assured of GE’s global standards for engine overhauls. Further, CFM has established a training school in the city of Hyderabad to provide localized engine training solutions to its airline customers in the region. Military Engines: Powering India’s armed forces GE's military engines provide the power and reliability for many military applications. GE supplies F404IN20 engines for the Light Combat Aircraft-Tejas Mk-1. In 2010, the F414-INS6 engines were selected to power the MKII version of the Light Combat Aircraft-Tejas. GE’s CT7-8 engines power the Indian Air Force’s VVIP squadron of AW101, while CFM56 engines power the Indian Navy’s P-8I. A GE90 engine being inspected by GE’s On-Wing service specialists Each of India’s indigenously developed Light Combat Aircraft LCA Mk-II fighter jets will be powered by a single GE F414-INS6 jet engine. Beyond that, GE is supporting India’s defense modernization through reliable and proven solutions for indigenous aircraft programs. Systems GE Aviation is also a leading supplier of integrated systems and technologies for combat aircraft, military transport, helicopters, land vehicles and unmanned aerial vehicles. GE's systems have been delpoyed on various Indian platforms including the Hawk Mk 132, SEPECAT Jaguar (Shamsher), P-8I, C130J and HJT-36 Sitara. GE’s Performance-Based Navigation (PBN) GE Aviation’s technologies extend from the wings into the cockpit. GE’s PBN Services is a world leader in the design and deployment of Performance-based Navigation and is working with aircraft operators and air traffic management providers in China, South and Central America, the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Europe to implement PBN solutions. Our Performance-based Navigation (PBN) flight paths can help alleviate air traffic problems by allowing aircraft to fly precisely defined trajectories without relying on ground-based radio-navigation signals. This GE’s Performance-Based Navigation precision allows pilots to land the aircraft in Technology allows pilots to fly precise routes weather conditions that would otherwise require them to hold, divert to another airport, or even to cancel the flight before departure. This technology could be a critical enabler for India as it gears up its navigation infrastructure to rising air travel.

Drafted in December 1944, the Convention also illustrates a sentiment that underpins the construction of the post-World War Two multilateral economic system: that by trading with one another, we are far less likely to fight one another. This pursuit of peace helped create the United Nations and other elements of our multilateral system and, although these institutions are never perfect, they have for the most part achieved that most basic aim: peace. Air travel, too, played its own important role. If trading with others helps to break down barriers, then meeting and learning from each other surely goes even further.

Copyright and re-use policy See http://shura.shu.ac.uk/information.html Sheffield Hallam University Research Archive http://shura.shu.ac.uk British Imperial Policy and the Indian Air Route, 1918-1932 Teresa Crompton A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Sheffield Hallam University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2014 Abstract The thesis examines the development of the civil air route between Britain and India from 1918 to 1932. Although an Indian route had been pioneered before the First World War, after it ended, fourteen years would pass before the route was established on a permanent basis. The research provides an explanation for the late start and subsequent slow development of the India route. The overall finding is that progress was held back by a combination of interconnected factors operating in both Britain and the Persian Gulf region. These included economic, political, administrative, diplomatic, technological, and cultural factors. The arguments are developed through a methodology that focuses upon two key theoretical concepts which relate, firstly, to interwar civil aviation as part of a dimension of empire, and secondly, to the history of aviation as a new technology.

  • Is Indian Military Aviation Reorienting? Kishore Kumar Khera
    IDSA Issue Brief Is Indian Military Aviation Reorienting? Kishore Kumar Khera May 07, 2019 Summary The unabated growth of the helicopter fleet in the Indian Armed Forces in the last two decades is a result of coherence between demand and supply. All three wings of the Indian Armed Forces clearly annunciated their operational requirements and moved forward aggressively for helicopter fleet expansion. This demand was ably supported by the supply of Russian Mi-17s and Indigenous ALHs. The addition of the heavy lift Chinook CH47 and the attack helicopter Apache AH64E will augment the capabilities further. If this trend were to persist, soon the IAF, the prime aviation force, will have more helicopters than fighter aircraft. With a lack of supply of fighter aircraft and its continuous draw down, are the Indian Armed Forces reorienting for helicopter dominated air operations for guarding the national interests? IS INDIAN MILITARY AVIATION REORIENTING? Aviation has been a part of military kinetic capability for over a century now. Exactly 100 years ago, for the first time, an independent military aviation wing was established that later was rechristened as the Royal Air Force of the United Kingdom.1 Based on the basic configuration of the lifting surface, aviation assets are broadly classified as fixed wing (aircraft) and rotary wing (helicopters). A further sub- classification in each category is based on their primary role. Fixed wing aviation assets include fighter aircraft of small size, with one or two crew members and primarily employed for weapon firing. The other subcategory of fixed-wing aircraft is the wide-bodied large aircraft capable of carrying passengers or cargo or special equipment like sensors or fuel.

INDIAN TOURISM INFRASTRUCTURE - Investment Opportunities & Challenges 3 4 INDIAN TOURISM INFRASTRUCTURE - Investment Opportunities & Challenges FOREWORD Travel and tourism, the largest service industry in India was worth US$234bn in 2018 – a 19% year- on-year increase – the third largest foreign exchange earner for India with a 17.9% growth in Foreign Exchange Earnings (in Rupee Terms) in March 2018 over March 2017. According to The World Travel and Tourism Council, tourism generated ₹16.91 lakh crore (US$240 billion) or 9.2% of India’s GDP in 2018 and supported 42.673 million jobs, 8.1% of its total employment. The sector is predicted to grow at an annual rate of 6.9% to ₹32.05 lakh crore (US$460 billion) by 2028 (9.9% of GDP). The Ministry has been actively working towards the development of quality tourism infrastructure at various tourist destinations and circuits in the States / Union Territories by sanctioning expenditure budgets across schemes like SWADESH DARSHAN and PRASHAD. The Ministry of Tourism has been actively promoting India as a 365 days tourist destination with the introduction of niche tourism products in the country like Cruise, Adventure, Medical, Wellness, Golf, Polo, MICE Tourism, Eco-tourism, Film Tourism, Sustainable Tourism, etc. to overcome ‘seasonality’ challenge in tourism. I am pleased to present the FICCI Knowledge Report “Indian Tourism Infrastructure : Investment Opportunities & Challenges” which highlights the current scenario, key facts and figures pertaining to the tourism sector in India.
