up to 2001. The GE civil engine fleet, including the
CFM56, is expected to grow to 25,000 by 2013
against just 5,000 in 1990. A large element of the
growth is also related to the smaller CF34 family,
which saw brisk business in 2004 with orders and
options taken to power almost 200 aircraft, including
Air Canada's orders for 90 Embraer 190s and up to
30175s, added to 12 firm order...

THE ENGINE that launched the regional jet age is powering die next phase of die RJ revolution. Already die leading power-plant in the 50-seat jet market, General
Electric's CF34 is to power all major contenders
in die 70- and 90-seat markets.

The increased core flow of the General
Electric CF34-3B engine results in a 7% power
uplift. It is used to raise die flat-rating tempera
