PWC New Turbofan Now Certified

Pratt & Whitney Canada has received type certification from Transport Canada for its PW617F1-E jet engine, the company announced on Monday at the NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition in Orlando, Florida. The engine has been chosen by Embraer to power its new version of the Phenom 100, the EV, which was announced this summer at EAA AirVenture. The new engine is built with half as many parts as a conventional turbofan, the company says, which makes maintenance easier and faster.
