Three-Year-Old A320neos Scrapped for Parts; United Airlines Selects GE Engines for New 787s

In a highly unusual development, several Airbus A320neo aircraft, merely three years old, are being dismantled for their valuable parts. These jets were previously operated by the S7 Group and are being scrapped as a consequence of sanctions against Russian airlines. The high demand for neo parts and engines makes them more valuable dismantled than as whole aircraft that cannot be legally transferred. In other major news, United Airlines has selected GE Aerospace's GEnx engines to power its latest order of Boeing 787 Dreamliners. This decision is a significant endorsement for GE in the competitive widebody engine market over rival Rolls-Royce.
