Air Canada's newly acquired Boeing 777 is powered by the GE 90 engine and the B787 Dreamliner will be powered by the new GEnx, an ECOmagination© product. GE-Marine Engines is the leading supplier of reliable aero derivative gas turbines for marine propulsion applications. GE's LM2500 gas turbines power the Navy's Canadian Patrol Frigates.
GE-Aviation has two manufacturing plants in the country. The Bromont, Québec facility produces gas turbine airfoils to meet worldwide commercial and military aircraft engine requirements. The GE Canada Unison plant located in Orillia Ontario manufactures engine shroud segments, housings and rotating air seals to combustor cases, bearing housings and vane actuator assemblies. GE-Aviation has a long-standing history in Canada, and is proud to serve the Canadian Military and Commercial markets.
