Support agreement for Banyan
May 23, 2009
StandardAero and Banyan Air Service have signed a support centre agreement, authorising Banyan as a StandardAero approved installation facility for the Cessna Caravan 208-series aircraft engine-upgrade programme. This engine-upgrade programme replaces the PT6A-114 (600 shp)/114A (675 shp) powerplants with the PT6A-135A (750 shp) powerplant. Providing an alternative to traditional overhaul, the new engine provides an increase in power at altitude and an improved rate of climb. A redesigned air inlet results in improved ram air recovery to the engine intake – further increasing engine performance. Engines will be available for installation early in the third quarter of 2009.
