Abstract

The article reports that the first V2500 SelectOne engine of International Aero Engines is poised to begin test and certification flight tests on the prototype Airbus A320 in Toulouse, France. The modification incorporates design changes to cut fuel consumption by 1%, increase time on wing by 20% and satisfy CAEP/6 nitrous oxide (NOx) emissions standards. It says that the entire package cannot be retrofitted although SelectOne is designed to operate seamlessly with standard V2500-A5 and upgraded engines.
