Latvian airline airBaltic has signed a long-term partnership with Pratt & Whitney for comprehensive engine maintenance services for their fleet of Airbus A220-300 aircraft. This agreement, based on a power-by-the-hour framework, aims to optimize airBaltic’s fleet performance and support the airline’s growth plans.
The global carbon cleaning machine market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2024 to 2034, reaching US$ 339.9 million by 2034. Driven by rising urbanization and vehicle ownership, especially in emerging nations, the market is experiencing significant growth. This technology, which uses hydrogen and oxygen to remove carbon deposits from engines, offers improved performance, fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions, making it increasingly popular for vehicle maintenance.
A seasoned mechanic, Scotty Kilmer, advocates disabling the popular automatic start/stop feature in modern vehicles to extend engine lifespan. Kilmer believes that the frequent starting and stopping of the engine causes excessive wear and recommends switching off this functionality using the toggle button on the dashboard.
