GE myEngines Coming Soon for Business Aviation

One program that GE Aviation expects will migrate from its commercial powerplant side to its business aircraft engine division is its myEngines offering. A series of digital smartphone applications aimed at helping operators better manage their engine fleets and improve productivity, the program was started in 2010 for commercial customers. Its engine monitoring function can send alerts from aircraft in flight, notifying maintenance departments of potential problems.

“We’ve got a lot of experience with diagnostics and the algorithms that are built around them to make sure that we can identify problems as they occur or even before they occur,” said Shawn O’Day, GE Aviation’s marketing leader for business and general aviation.
