CHICAGO (Reuters) – Jet engine maker CFM International said on Tuesday more than half of the 145 engines suspected, thus far, of containing falsely documented parts from a UK distributor have been removed from service.
CFM, owned by GE and France’s Safran, said it has completed an “exhaustive” review of the documentation provided by AOG Technics and shared the results with the relevant authorities.
“We are closely working with CFM56 operators affected by unauthorized parts from AOG Technics while supporting the investigation to keep unapproved parts out of the global supply chain,” a spokesperson said.
