Microturbo Seeking Larger Share of Bizjet APU Market
French manufacturer takes 100 percent of Bombardier Global 7000/8000 and Dassault Falcon 5X APU programs.

Microturbo is exhibiting an auxiliary power unit (APU) and an engine starter here at NBAA 2014 and also is developing two new APUs. Last summer, the Safran group company assumed full responsibility for two programs in which it was a minority partner: the APUs for the Dassault Falcon 5X and the Bombardier Global 7000/8000. Microturbo now wants to play a greater role in business jet APUs, including meeting the needs of future system architectures.
