Friedrichshafen, Germany, April 9, 2025
Continental Aerospace Technologies⢠is announcing a significant milestone for its Jet-A piston engine series. The companyâs popular line of Jet-A engines has now surpassed 12 million flight hours. This achievement underscores the exceptional performance, reliability, and customer satisfaction that has made these jet-fuel-burning piston engines a trusted choice for operators worldwide.
This milestone highlights the growing popularity of Continental^® Jet-A piston engines, which are recognized for providing pilots with enhanced efficiency, reduced workload, and cost savings by using readily available and more affordable Jet-A fuel. These engines have gained significant traction among private aircraft owners and flight schools, who appreciate their ease of operation and consistent power delivery. Among the Jet-A series, the Continental^® CD-170 stands out as its newest engine in the CD-100 series. Featuring turbocharging technology, the CD-170 delivers an impressive 170 horsepower of takeoff power while its dry weight is below 345lbs. This combination of high performance and efficiency has earned the CD-170 a reputation as one of the top engines in its class, favored by operators for its Full Authority Digital Control (FADEC) engine system and exceptional power-to-weight ratio.
âSurpassing 12 million flight hours is a major accomplishment for us,â said Oliver Leber, Vice President of Global Sales & Applications Engineering at Continental^®. âThis milestone is a testament to the exceptional performance of Continentalâs Jet-A piston engines, which continue to deliver operational efficiency and real savings, allowing pilots to focus more on their flying experience and less on cockpit management.â
âThis is a significant milestone for the team, and it truly reflects the dedication and the precise building process that goes into each Jet-A engine,â said Thomas Wünsch, Head of Business at Continental^® Germany and Executive Vice President & Managing Director. âFrom research and design to the production floor, our team has worked tirelessly to ensure these engines meet the highest standards of quality and reliability. As we continue to move forward, we will focus on adding to the outstanding legacy that Continental^® has procured over the past 120 years.â
Continental^® Jet-A engines are directly installed on certified aircraft from leading airframe partners such as Tecnam, Diamond, Piper, and Robin. Continental^® also offers a Standard Type Certificate (STC) retrofit kit, enabling operators to retrofit Jet-A technology to existing airplanes such as select models of Cessna 172s, Piper PA-28, and Diamond DA40 in as fast as 21 days. Continental^® continues to look forward to creating exciting, dependable, and efficient engine solutions that prolong the joy of flight for pilots everywhere.
