EAP adds select engines from big OEMs to maintenance programme

Operators of aircraft powered by Rolls-Royce BR710C4-11s, General Electric CF34-3Bs, Honeywell HTF7000s and Pratt & Whitney Canada PW308Cs now can enrol their engines with Engine Assurance Program (EAP).

The expansion also covers auxiliary power units (APU). 

Sean Lynch, MD at Engine Assurance Program, said: “With EAP, out-of-production aircraft can stay in the air longer, giving life to these still highly versatile airframes. The engines served by EAP have logged millions of hours of service. When EAP keeps an aircraft flying longer, there is an entire revenue stream and trickle-down effect that feeds the whole industry.”

EAP continues to expand the list of engines covered by its hourly maintenance programme. It already covers all variants of the Honeywell TFE731 and recently has focused on adding GE, Pratt & Whitney Canada, Honeywell and Rolls-Royce engines. 

With these new additions, operators of Challenger 604, Falcon 2000EX/EX EASy/DX/S/LX/LXS, Challenger 300 and Gulfstream G550 aircraft are now served by the company. 

EAP customers have a 99.98% dispatch reliability rate.

“You may only need one programme for all your engine coverage needs versus dealing with multiple different OEM programmes. That saves customers time and effort,” adds Lynch. “By not being affiliated with an OEM, we’re agnostic. If your flight department operates a Challenger 604, Gulfstream 550 and a Falcon 900, we have you covered. We can be your single resource for all those engines and APUs.”
