Overview

From the pioneering CFM56 to the cutting-edge LEAP, CFM International has reshaped the skies and redefined what commercial engines can achieve. Born from a daring Franco-American alliance between General Electric and Safran, CFM's story is one of unlikely collaboration, relentless engineering, and unmatched reliability. For decades, its engines have powered the aircraft that carried billions of passengers, underpinned the rise of global low-cost carriers, and set new benchmarks in efficiency and dependability. This book traces that remarkable journey, from the joint venture's early struggles to win airline trust, through the CFM56's historic success as the world's best-selling jet engine, and into the new era of sustainable aviation with the LEAP program. With detailed analysis of engineering innovation, market battles, production challenges, and the people who made it possible, Engines of Partnership provides the definitive account of how CFM became inseparable from the evolution of modern aviation.
