FARNBOROUGH, England, July 21 (Reuters) - Airbus said on Tuesday it was pushing for more engines from Pratt & Whitney for 2027 following a tug of war with airlines over supplies and hoped to receive more from alternate supplier CFM, which was already meeting its agreed quantities.
Airbus Commercial CEO Lars Wagner told reporters at a news briefing on fresh business forecasts that he expected protracted problems over engine supplies to be resolved by 2028.
RTX unit Pratt & Whitney said earlier that maintenance disruption that has left hundreds of aircraft grounded was easing.
