Last week, we delivered the Made-In-Singapore Rolls-Royce TRENT 1000 aircraft engine to Scoot. Proudly made in Singapore, for a Singaporean airline, by Singaporeans.
When we unveiled the impressive new engine, the Rolls-Royce and Scoot teams cheered loudly. Because this engine is their baby. It is a complex piece of machinery that took high skills, the highest standards and sky-high passion to put together. It is all the more amazing if you remember how young our aerospace industry is. You can really feel how proud everyone on the Rolls-Royce team is of this baby – they should be!
I am happy that Rolls-Royce will be showing the engine in some schools in April, as part of their student outreach initiatives. They also offer some 100 internships to students from ITE, polys and universities. This is how we will grow the next generation of engineers and inventors. Who knows what amazing things they will build next?
Congratulations to Rolls-Royce and Scoot on the successful delivery! This is the fruit of your hard work at Rolls-Royce Singapore, and the launch of a new era of flying for Scoot.
