Market sectors

The civil aerospace business powers over 30 types of commercial aircraft and has a strong position in all sectors of the market: wide-body, narrow-body and corporate and regional aircraft. Over 13,000 engines are currently in service with 650 airlines, freight operators and lessors and 4,000 corporate operators.

Despite a decline in air traffic, the market is beginning to recover, albeit slowly. 2010 traffic will see a return to growth but from suppressed levels. We remain cautious but optimistic of seeing the historic traffic growth level of approximately five per cent per annum achieved over a 20-year period.
