I am curious how Pratt and Whitney's PW1100/1500 problems are affecting Air Canada's A220s and Air Transat's A320neos.
Every time I see an article, it just seems to get worse. The geared turbofan seems like a conceptual winner, but the real-world implementation has been just woeful. Ironically, the geared portion of the engine seems to be fairly reliable; the rest of the engine has just been a headache.
