In context

“ve meaningful improvement for our customers. Our focus remains on delivering mature levels of time on wing and lowering costs of ownership. In November, the GE NX fleet leader, equipped with the upgraded HBT blade, which has improved time on wing over two and a half times in hot and harsh environments, achieved a new milestone surpassing 4,000 cycles. Informed by our progress with the GE NX, the LEAP 1A durability kit will improve time on wing by more than two times, matching our industry-leading CFM56 performance. This is now incorporated in all LEAP 1A new engine deliveries and shop visits, with nearly 1,500 kits shipped since certification. In addition to improved durability, we're also expanding our LEAP repair catalog, which will lower costs of ownership and improve turnaround times. In '25, LEAP parts certified for repair increased 20%, and we expect continued growth in '26. Combined with our progress on delivery, we're actively working to meet customer expectations on LEAP. At the same time, utilization of our mature engines remains robust. CFM56 is the most widely owned and operated engine in commercial aviation. With retirements in '25 consistent with '24 levels, the third-party MRO ecosystem provides customers with optionality for servicing their fleets, supporting higher asset values, and lowering costs of ownership. We continue to strengthen MRO access to OEM materials to support further CFM56 longevity. Last quarter, for example, we reached a materials agreement with EFTIA Aviation to support the service of its growing fleet of CFM56 engines. We're also progressing the next generation of engines. We recently completed a ground test campaign demonstrati”
