Pratt & Whitney Canada is evaluating options for expanding its customer support network in the Asia-Pacific region in response to a rapidly growing operator base for its engines. The manufacturer already has about 1,500 customers and 6,000 engines in this part of the world and this fleet base is still seeing double-digit growth at a time when utilization rates have been flat or falling in other regions more seriously impacted by the economic downturn.

The P&WC support network already includes facilities here in Singapore, Australia, China and Japan. The company has been increasing the number of engine parts it has available throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
