GE's ATP Engine Becomes Catalyst
The new name comes as development testing spools up with next run anticipated early next week and next engine being outfitted with instrumentation.
GE Aviation's new Advanced Turboprop (ATP) engine is now known at the Catalyst. The formal naming of the Catalyst comes as GE Aviation has moved into the testing phase, completing first run for the first model—a 1,300-shp variant for the Cessna Denali—in December. (Photo: Kerry Lynch/AIN)
