Market sectors

Strong programme positions supported further robust order flow in 2011. A 47 per cent increase in the order intake to £11.0 billion contributed to a record order book of £52 billion, up seven per cent on 2010. The order book contains over 5,000 engines that will add, over time, around 250 million pounds of installed thrust, or 65 per cent, to our current installed base of 400 million pounds of thrust.
