Pratt & Whitney's 35-Part Hot Section Plus Retrofit Set to Nearly Double A320neo Engine Time-On-Wing
For Airbus A320neo operators, the most critical metric to care about today is no longer just fuel burn; it is Time-On-Wing (TOW). As Pratt & Whitney rolls out its comprehensive series of upgrades for the Geared Turbofan (GTF) engine family, the spotlight has shifted to the Hot Section Plus (HS+) retrofit kit. More than just a simple tweak, this retrofit kit is a 35-part change designed to close the durability gap between the existing fleet and the new GTF Advantage standard.
