Airbus will launch a re-engined version of its A320 family aircraft Wednesday, for entry into service in 2016, say industry sources.
The A320 NEO (new engine option) will be launched with variants of Pratt & Whitney’s PW1000G and CFM Leap-X engines.
The 150-seat A320, the original member of the European airframer’s narrowbody family, will be the first model offered with the new engine option.
