GE Aviation Stops Work on Affinity Development
GE Aviation has said that it has ended work on the Affinity engine as Aerion, which was developing the AS supersonic business jet, has ceased operations.

As supersonic aircraft designer Aerion ceased operations over a lack of available funding, GE Aviation has confirmed that it has discontinued development work on the twin-shaft, medium-bypass Affinity engine that was to have powered the Mach 1.4 Aerion AS2 business jet. GE Aviation also noted that it is redeploying its Affinity team to other programs.
