Boeing Distribution taps into e-commerce: US plane manufacturer Boeing has launched a new e-commerce platform, which aims to unify Boeing Distribution’s wide portfolio of products and services into a single streamlined digital website, according to a press release. The e-commerce platform will aim to centralize parts that are essential for aviation customers — offering a single access point that merges previously separate inventories and services. It is also set to support real-time inventory and order management to facilitate supply chain workflows, the statement adds.
Pratt & Whitney makes good on its 2025 engine delivery target to Airbus: France-based airplane maker Airbus has taken in all engines by manufacturer Pratt & Whitney scheduled for delivery in 2025, Bloomberg reported on Sunday, citing Rick Deurloo, Pratt & Whitney’s president of commercial engines.
Why it matters? Pratt & Whitney engines power around half of the new orders of the world’s most popular jet, the narrow-body A320, with the rest usually fulfilled by CFM’s LEAP-1A engines. During the first 9M of 2025, the European jet maker delivered 507 commercial aircraft, out of which 392 were from the A320 family — Airbus’s and the world’s most popular aircraft.
