IndiGo signs MOU for record LEAP-1A engine deal with CMF

FARNBOROUGH, UK, July 20 (Reuters) - IndiGo, India's largest airline, has signed a memorandum of understanding with CFM International to buy over 1,000 LEAP-1A engines, which would mark a record deal for the engine maker that has come under fire from industry for maintenance delays.

CFM, which makes engines for the Boeing 737 MAX and competes with Pratt & Whitney on the Airbus A320neo, is the world's largest engine maker by number of units sold. It is co-owned by GE Aerospace GE.N and France's Safran SAF.PA.
