Gulfstream, Nordam Reach Deal on PW800 Nacelles

Nordam has reached an agreement to sell its interest in a nacelle program to Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. (GAC) in a move that will pave the way for immediate resumption of nacelle production for the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW800 engines that power the Gulfstream G500 and G600 and ultimately allow Nordam to file a plan to emerge from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, according to court documents filed today. Nordam announced its suspension of the PW800 nacelle production on July 5, citing “an impasse” with P&WC, and then filed for Chapter 11 later that month.
