Aerospace manufacturer GE Aerospace has reported its financial result for Q3 2024, posting 6% revenue growth amid a 28% increase in orders. Notably, the company is experiencing strong demand for its aircraft jet engines, particularly the 3D printing-enabled CFM LEAP engine. Featuring GE's landmark 3D printed fuel nozzles, LEAP engines are developed by CFM International, a joint venture with French aerospace manufacturer Safran. They power the Airbus A320neo, Boeing 737 MAX, and COMAC C919 aircraft. Q3 2024 saw aviation finance firm Avolon order 150 LEAP-1A engines for 75 A320 aircraft. This adds to the growing LEAP engine backlog, which reportedly exceeded 10,000 in July 2024. GE Aviation's total order backlog amounted to a substantial $149 billion in Q3 2024, with 90% of this reportedly linked to its services segment.
