Goodrich will showcase its advanced aerostructures and engine nacelles for commercial, regional and military aircraft platforms. Signature capabilities include design, manufacture, and integration of nacelles, thrust reversers, and pylons for large commercial aircraft. Goodrich provides the nacelle systems for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, the Airbus A350 XWB, the Bombardier CSeries, the Mitsubishi Regional Jet and the Airbus A320neo powered by the Pratt & Whitney PurePower® PW1100G.

Market leading power generation capabilities will feature on the booth. Goodrich products equip military fixed and rotary wing platforms worldwide. The company provides near off-the-shelf power solutions as a result of an existing portfolio of systems developed for platforms from small helicopters to the largest airliners.
