CFM International logged record orders at the 2017 Paris Air Show, receiving orders for 1,658 LEAP and CFM56 engines, in addition to long-term service agreements, at a value of more than $27.3 billion U.S. at list price.


The company told Paris Airshow News that it will leave the show with a total 2017 order book of more than 2,850 engines and total LEAP orders on the books for nearly 14,130 engines.


"This air show has far surpassed all of our expectations,” said Gaël Méheust, president and CEO of CFM International. “It is highly gratifying and humbling to have so many airlines put their faith in CFM to power and support their single-aisle fleets.&nbsp;&nbsp; Now, it is our job to reinforce, every day, that they have made the right choice.”
