The CFM56 family of turbofans, the world’s best-seller, powers a large number of commercial jetliners built by both Airbus and Boeing, in particular the A320 and 737 families of short/medium-range twinjets.
Snecma (Safran group), develops, produces and markets the CFM56 through CFM International, a company equally-owned with GE. The CFM56 is considered the most dependable engine of its generation, with a dispatch reliability rate of nearly 100%. It also offers the widest thrust range of any commercial or military engine, at 18,500 to 34,000 pounds. Snecma provides a complete range of support services for the CFM56 in its own plants and through specialized subsidiaries.
