A South African company is hoping to offer the best of both urban mobility and cityto-city air travel markets with a VTOL aircraft it believes will usher in "a new era of point-to-point travel." The Pegasus borrows design features from some eVTOL designs being developed for inner city hops between rooftops in a larger airframe that uses 2300 horsepower
turboshaft engines to get up and go.
In terms of type of product, the international aircraft engines market is prognosticated to be segregated into turbofan, turboprop, and
turboshaft. The analysts profoundly study all of these segments with the help of revenue, year-on-year (Y-o-Y) growth, and market share comparisons.
Turkish Aerospace Industries has announced it has taken delivery of the first

For example, Austin Brouillard, an engineer with the turboprop and
turboshaft design branch in NAWCAD's Propulsion and Power Department, created a tool that saved more than 60 hours on a project that will help redefine pass/fail criteria for damage on T56 engine compressor blades and determine which ones will make ideal test subjects during engine frequency testing.
GE would provide its CT7-8E engine, a 3,000-horsepower
turboshaft engine, for the modernized helicopters.
Navy for initial production of
turboshaft engines for the CH-53K heavy-lift helicopter.
