Aviation: Finnair Goes Green with Eco Friendly Jet Engines - Typepad

Environment

Finland's flag carrier Finnair has selected IAE International Aero Engines AG to supply engines for the airline's five new Airbus A321 extended range aircraft, which will join the Finnish airline's fleet in September 2013.

The IAE V2533-A5 engines will offer Finnair a significant advantage in fuel efficiency over competing air carriers, saving the airline about 300 tons of fuel per year per aircraft, according to Airbus test data, the Finnish airline says.

The engines also operate well within noise limitations set by ICAO and the European Union.

Finnair announced in June 2010 an order for five Airbus aircraft to replace the four Boeing 757s currently in the air Finnish air carrier's fleet.

Quieter, More Comfortable, More Fuel Efficient

The new Airbus 321s will be quieter and more comfortable for passengers as well as about 5% more fuel efficient than its existing airplanes. The move also enables more flexibility and interoperability between European scheduled and leisure flights, driving up aircraft utilization and further reducing per-passenger emissions.

?The IAE engines on these aircraft allow us to enhance the customer experience while also saving on fuel costs and making a substantial dent in our carbon profile,? says Chief Operating Officer Ville Iho.

?They are essential to remaining competitive in the tough market in European narrow-body traffic, both scheduled and leisure.?
