PT6A CHOICE ESP® Program
A unique engine service plan offering enhanced cost
predictability will soon be available to operators of PT6A
engines in corporate service: the new PT6A CHOICE Eagle
Service TM Plan (ESP ® Program).
This program has been designed for the specific needs of
the PT6A engine operator and the maturity, reliability and
modular design of the PT6A engine. It aligns engine service
plan payments with program benefits received during
the expected term of aircraft ownership. The operator
pays a reduced hourly rate for full program benefits up
to the scheduled overhaul event. At the overhaul event,
the remaining balance of PT6A CHOICE ESP ® Program
payments results in a guaranteed engine overhaul price.
More information on this program will be announced at
the NBAA, October 19 in Atlanta, Georgia.
