NEW YORK, June 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FTAI Aviation Ltd. (NASDAQ: FTAI) and IAE International Aero Engines AG (IAE) today announced a five-year EngineWise® maintenance services agreement for V2500 engines.

“We look forward to collaborating with IAE to restore these engines together,” said Joe Adams, CEO, FTAI Aviation. “We are committed to the V2500 engine and see tremendous demand for it in the next decade. Teaming up with IAE allows us to extend the life of the V2500 fleet while providing flexible engine power to our airline customers.”
