Vector Aerospace is adding a new engine test cell at its Summerside facility in Prince Edward Island, Canada, thanks in part to a financing partnership with provincial and federal governments. The new multimillion-dollar test cell, which will be capable of supporting turboprops producing up to 5,000 shp, will join three existing test stands at Summerside—two dedicated to turboprops and one to turbofans.
