The Future of Aircraft Engines, the GE9X with Ted Ingling

We were joined on the Australian Aviation podcast by Ted Ingling who is Program General Manager for the GE9X. Ted started out life as a car mechanic and moved onto engineering and ultimately into aviation. He's worked at GE for more than 38 years and has seen incredible development and innovation throughout that time. The G9X is the biggest, most powerful and most fuel efficient engine ever created by GE. The technology, skill and manpower that goes into creating a project such as this is truly inspirational. The G9X has completed 2 of its 3 critical milestones which are static testing and the initial flight testing. The final milestone is marrying the engine to the new 777X airframe which will happen very soon indeed. Listen in as Ted shares his deep knowledge in a simple and easy to understand manner on the most exciting engine project in GE's history.
