Goodrich Tapped To Provide A350 XWB Nacelles, Thrust Reversers

Will Develop Parts For All Engine Options

The plan for Airbus' upcoming A350XWB is starting to come together... with Goodrich Corporation announcing Tuesday it will provide Airbus with nacelle and thrust reverser systems for all variants of the recently launched aircraft. The contract is expected to generate approximately $10 billion in original equipment and aftermarket revenues for Goodrich over 20 years.

The contract includes the integration of the Goodrich technology with each engine manufacturer's offering/option. Therefore, Goodrich will ultimately be providing Airbus with complete propulsion systems ready to be installed on the A350 XWB final assembly line.

"We're proud to be the first large equipment integrator that Airbus has selected as part of its team for this exciting new aircraft. Their choice of our technology for this high profile platform is a testament to our long-standing relationship with Airbus," said Curtis Reusser, President of Goodrich's Aerostructures division.

"Together our team with Airbus has been focusing on leveraging new technology and manufacturing processes with a primary objective of delivering product maturity at entry into service as well as the potential for the development of a nacelle and thrust reverser system that is truly integrated with the aircraft and engine," he added.

As Aero-News reported, the board at Airbus parent company EADS signed off on the development of the A350XWB late last year.

Goodrich Corporation is a global supplier of systems and services to aerospace, defense and homeland security markets.
