P&WC PT6A New Parts Pricing

July 25, 2014
2014 list prices for more than 1,100 small PT6A parts frozen or reduced by up to 20 percent

CELEBRATING MORE THAN 50 YEARS since its debut, Pratt & Whitney Canada Corp. (“P&WC”)’s iconic PT6 engine continues to be the ‘go to’ power source for thousands of aviation operators worldwide. The PT6’s reputation for dependability and versatility has led it to power more than 140 different aircraft applications.

P&WC UNDERSTANDS that many PT6A operators are entrepreneurs who are experiencing operating challenges caused by the lingering economic conditions that have affected all aspects of the global aviation industry.

PT6A’S DURABILITY AND LONG LIFE SPAN generates a constant demand for replacement parts. As your original equipment manufacturer (OEM), P&WC provides a full catalogue of replacement parts to keep your engine running to reach its full mission potential almost like new.

AN INITIATIVE TO DELIVER GREATER VALUE to its loyal PT6A operators – this is what P&WC is offering by freezing or reducing by up to 20 per cent the 2014 list prices for more than 1,100 new parts for small PT6A engines. This represents more than one-quarter of unique PT6A catalogue parts. This pricing initiative covers parts required for basic line maintenance up to overhaul and is in addition to a number of other responsive actions P&WC is taking to provide added-value to operators.
