GE Aviation is transferring responsibility for GE CF34-3 engine parts to Boeing subsidiary Aviall Services. Under the exclusive distributor agreement signed by GE Aviation and Aviall Services, Aviall will be responsible for forecasting, ordering and delivering all genuine OEM replacement parts that are unique to CF34-3 engines. The company will also assume responsibility for documentation management, worldwide inventory deployment, warehousing and product distribution of GE CF34-3 parts. Meanwhile, GE will continue to provide all CF34-3 life-limited parts and will retain technical responsibility for these engines.
