One Year Passed after Malaysian Airlines Lost

Malaysia Airlines' passenger aircraft with 239 passengers a year has passed over the loss. But still could not trace the aircraft. Even Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said at last, "I do not promise that it will continue with the same intensity of the search operation." He said. Between the cockpit and control tower made the remarks at the last meeting, '' Well, good night, '' was described as. Was first focused on the signals from the black box of the aircraft is believed to be breached in a large area in Kazakhstan began exploration in the Northern Hemisphere than in the Southern Hemisphere Australia. The source of the signals were in the ocean came full depth of 4572 meters depth .. It falls from the level in 2012, where France passenger plane belonging to 600 meters deep. This difference was greatest indicator of how the work is challenging.

CEO of GE Reshaping the Future

(Bloomberg) -- About 15 years after General Electric Co. held a high-profile bake-off to determine the successor to then-Chief Executive Officer Jack Welch, speculation has begun over who could be next in line for the top post.

Possible candidates to succeed CEO Jeffrey Immelt come from across GE and include Steve Bolze, head of the power and water unit; Lorenzo Simonelli, the oil and gas CEO; and Vice Chairman John Rice, analysts said in interviews. Shannon O'Callaghan of UBS AG and William Blair & Co.'s Nicholas Heymann were among analysts who discussed potential successors.

A Barclays Plc note on Monday sparked the latest round of speculation and suggested Chief Financial Officer Jeff Bornstein was a front-runner. How GE proceeds depends largely on when the 59-year-old Immelt opts to exit, especially if the next CEO intends to match Welch's two-decade tenure. A sudden vacancy now may favor a seasoned executive such as Rice, 58, while Simonelli, 41, may be better situated if Immelt departs in a few years.

"They clearly have deep bench strength, much deeper than most corporations," said Gail Meneley, a principal at Chicago-based consultant Shields Meneley Partners, whose clients include McDonald's Corp. and Johnson & Johnson. "They will of course place heavy weight on the opinion of the CEO who has been in the seat and knows what it takes."

Industrial Focus

Immelt, CEO and chairman of the 305,000-employee industrial giant since 2001, is reshaping GE around its industrial divisions as he looks to boost margins and energize a languishing stock. Since he took over for Welch four days before the 9/11 terror attacks, the shares have fallen 35 percent while the Standard & Poor's 500 Industrials index has almost doubled. The 2008-09 financial crisis slammed the GE Capital unit, imperiling the Fairfield, Connecticut-based parent company.

Welch started formal succession-planning discussions more than seven years before he stepped down, according to a 2001 Fortune article. In a June 1994 board meeting, Welch brought a handwritten list of 24 candidates separated into three categories: "obvious field," "contenders" and "broader consensus field." The three executives who made it to the final round -- Immelt, Robert Nardelli and James McNerney -- all started in the third category.

In subsequent years, Welch arranged social events for directors to get to know the executives, while not publicly revealing the challengers until after the selection was made. Promotion decisions were made to give the leading candidates broader experience. Immelt was rumored to be a favorite a year before he was announced as the winner.

Retirement Plans?

After more than a decade as CEO, Immelt could step down in the next year, Barclays's Scott Davis said Monday in a note. "Most investors are ready for a change at the top now," Davis said.

Seth Martin, a GE spokesman, declined to comment about the Barclays report, and Immelt hasn't said when he plans to retire. In an October interview, he said, "There will be a natural time to think about a transition, but for right now you're stuck with me."

The timing and field of potential successors could be dictated in part by whether Immelt is successful in his effort to focus GE around high-margin industrial units.

"It very much depends on the success of the current plan," said UBS's O'Callaghan. "If it fails, who knows what's going to happen?"

While GE has a history of grooming candidates internally, a sharp slump in the business could force it to look outside, said Peter Sorrentino, a portfolio manager for Cincinnati-based Huntington Asset Advisors Inc., which owns GE shares.

'Same Kool-Aid'

"I don't know that it's a GE insider because this team has been together long enough and are sort of drinking the same Kool-Aid," Sorrentino said. "If you don't change the scenery you're going to get the same thing."

Immelt had some early missteps, including overpaying for U.K.-based biotechnology company Amersham Plc in a $10.3 billion deal in 2004, said Jack De Gan, chief investment officer of Harbor Advisory Corp. The CEO has earned back some investor goodwill with more recent moves, including the effort to shrink the volatile finance arm, said De Gan, whose Portsmouth, New Hampshire-based firm owns about 100,000 GE shares among its $130 million in assets.

"The market over the last year or so is starting to come to believe that the transformation of GE's portfolio and the rapid decline in the financial business is going to do the trick," De Gan said. "Late '16, early '17 is a time when the market should really be appreciating the work he's done."

Engineers Rigged this Dreamliner Jet Engine With Parts Made from Amazing Ceramics

Engineers at jet engine proving grounds in Ohio are using a jet engine GE developed for Boeing’s Dreamliner to test engine parts made from a new ceramic super-material. The material could help pave the way to more fuel efficient planes.

The temperatures inside jet engines are so extreme that even parts from high-end titanium alloys require an intricate cooling system to work well. But the new material, called ceramic matrix composite, needs 20 percent less cooling air, which allows engineers to extract more power from the extra heat. “When you drop the need for cooling components, your engine will become aerodynamically more efficient and also more fuel efficient,” Jonathan Blank, who leads CMC and advanced polymer matrix composite research at GE Aviation, told GE Reports.

GE Aviation is testing the GEnx jet engine with the ceramic parts at its hard-core testing facility in Peebles, Ohio. The parts include inner and outer combustor liners, high-pressure turbine stage one shrouds, and stage two nozzles. CMC stage one nozzles for the high-pressure turbine will be tested on the second build of this demo engine.

GE has spent the last two decades and over $1 billion developing CMCs. The light material, which has one-third the weight of metal, is made from a combination of silicon carbide ceramic fibers and ceramic resin sealed together during a highly sophisticated process, and further enhanced with proprietary coatings. GE recently opened the first CMC factory in Asheville, N.C.

GE is currently designing CMC parts for the next generation of jet engines like the LEAPand the GE9X. If fact, the GEnx in Peebles is a stand-in for the GE9X, which is still in development and will power Boeing’s new 777X wide-body passenger jet.

GE and its partners will spend more that $500 million on maturing CMC parts this year alone. “The GEnx engine testing campaign, which began in late January, will allow us to demonstrate the functionality and durability of the full suite of CMC hot section components, and help the team lock down the final design for the new GE9X engine by mid-2015,” said Bill Millhaem, general manager of GE’s GE90 and GE9X engine programs.

Although the GE9X isn’t scheduled to enter service until the end of the decade, GE has already received $20 billion (list price) in orders and commitments from airlines like Emirates, Lufthansa, Etihad and others.

But GE isn’t done. All of the CMC components inside the GEnx engine are static, they don’t move. In February, engineers scored animportant breakthrough when they for the first time successfully tested rotating parts made from CMCs inside a jet engine turbine. “Going from nickel alloys to rotating ceramics inside the engine is the really big jump,” Blank told GE Reports. “CMCs allow for a revolutionary change in jet engine design.”
