GE Aerospace used additive technology with advanced alloys to allow more geometrical freedom in the design the Catalyst turboprop. The technology results in lower fuel burn and weight as well as increased durability and efficiency.

General Electric’s scheduled spinoff of its GE Vernova power generation business on April 2 also paves the way for GE Aerospace to become a fully independent company, completing industrial giant's transformation into three standalone and investment-grade organizations.

To effect the separation, GE’s board of directors approved a distribution to GE shareholders of all shares of GE Vernova’s common stock. Holders of GE common stock will receive one share of GE Vernova common stock for every four shares of GE common stock held on March 19, the record date for the distribution.
