Goodrich Corporation’s aerostructures business will provide the entire nacelle systems for Dreamliner aircraft.

The nacelle is a cover housing that holds engines, fuel or equipment on an aircraft.

The Boeing 787 fan cowl is the first such package awarded to CTRM by Goodrich Corporation’s aerostructures business.

In 2004, CTRM was awarded the first contract by Goodrich to manufacture a portion of the nacelle for V2500 engines.
