Big birthday, big engine. 🎂🌀

This Independence Day, American ingenuity is on full display on the National Mall. 🇺🇸

From developing the first U.S. jet engine in Lynn, Massachusetts, to the world’s largest and most powerful commercial aircraft engine in the GE9X, we are proud to be an American company inventing the future of flight in the United States for more than 100 years.

Happy 250th Independence Day! 🇺🇸

📰 News 📰

The Catalyst engine has achieved FAA certification!

The certification marks a significant milestone for this program, paving the way for its entry into service. The Catalyst will bring a transformative change to this segment, offering greater efficiency, enhanced performance, and improved fuel consumption.

Congratulations to all the @AvioAero and #GEAerospace teams who have worked to develop, design, assemble, and test this turboprop engine.

The road to RISE… 1988.

#DYK Open fan technology has continued in development for decades? The GE36, an experimental unducted fan engine, completed its first transatlantic flight for the Farnborough International Airshow in 1988. 🤯

When Alex Hills first saw the video rendering of the #CFMRISE open fan engine demonstrator he thought, "Wouldn't it be cool if there was a physical model?"

So he decided to reverse engineer one, for fun. 🤩 https://t.co/Rhk23uUYQ9

Which team has the most annoying fans? I’ll start and even though I am obviously right, let’s hear it.

[GE Aerospace @GE_Aerospace]

Open fan is one of the advanced engine architectures @CFM_engines is exploring through the CFM RISE Program. As chief engineer @lorence_chris explains, open fan has become simpler and lighter than previous designs: https://t.co/MfmwNJoYN5

Great meeting with the Secretary of Agriculture today!

[Secretary Tom Vilsack @SecVilsack]

GE Aviation is a leader in developing jet turbine engines that are compatible with sustainable aviation fuel. Today, I met with GE Aviation Leadership, toured the facility, and saw a suite of engine technologies that will play a role in our fight against climate change.

[GE Aerospace @GE_Aerospace]

Congratulations to @TextronAviation on the first flight of the @Beechcraft Denali, powered by the GE Catalyst engine. 🛫

A legendary milestone, indeed! 👏
