August 13, 2018

Every year at the end of July, acrobatic pilots turn the sky above Oshkosh, Wisconsin, into a special kind of canvas, their planes’ smoke flares painting it with giant loops, corkscrews and figure eights. On a recent Wednesday, a Red Bull pilot was turning somersaults with his helicopter, flying it upside-down high above the admiring crowds attending the annual EAA AirVenture Oshkosh airshow.

In a highly competitive jet-engine market, aviation services are flying high. Services and maintenance, traditionally considered in the industry to be the “aftermarket” of engine sales, formed 63% of GE Aviation sales in 2017. It’s easy to imagine the commercial aircraft-engine market as cyclical — with an outstanding engine such as the GE GEnx-1B that powers the Boeing 787 Dreamliner experiencing a rush of orders before service contracts rev up. But there are other market factors driving demand for efficient, targeted service packages.
