A visionary partnership was formed in the 1970’s. GE and Snecma created CFM International*. With eyes clearly focused on tomorrow, that highly successful partnership has now been extended through 2040. We look forward to the future. To setting industry-leading reductions in fuel burn and emissions. To delivering the next-generation engine for narrow-body aircraft. Be far-sighted.
