Farnborough: IndiGo, India’s largest airline, has signed a memorandum of understanding with CFM International to buy over 1,000 LEAP-1A engines, which would mark a record deal for the engine maker that has come under fire from industry for maintenance delays.
CFM, which makes engines for the Boeing 737 MAX and competes with Pratt & Whitney on the Airbus A320neo, is the world’s largest engine maker by number of units sold. It is co-owned by GE Aerospace and France’s Safran.
