I had a good laugh when I saw the domestic lift update, about how they're 'refreshing' the CFM56's.
The amazing logic that new engines use less fuel than old engines. Am I living in the twilight zone ? Now its cheaper to get new ones after they closed down their own overhaul facility that churned out good engines year after year in all of the forms that the facility had over the many dozen years it was in existence ?
I wouldn't be suprised if that funny thing that happens once you remove all of the competition from a market happened in the case of engine overhauls.
As in the price went up!
Shut it down guys and sign it all over to us - we'll give you a great deal if you do!
