What is the difference between BF turbines and Behotec?
 
They look similar (ok, identical to my eye), they use same GSU, same software....etc....

What's the difference?

A lot of the machining is done by Behotec, but development, final assembly is done by the BF guys. So, shared but not the same


This is what Oli said a while back

BF is based close to Frankfurt and run by Christian Frey.
Behotec is based in Munich and run by Thomas Berthold.
However Thomas has money in BF ( The B of BF is for Berthold and the F for Frey ).
They both have separate means of production but share the know-how and some design features like the self centering bearing system, combustion chamber production processes, ECU system, kero burner...
Also Christian's machines are used as an additional asset to catch up with Behotec's production when required.

Gents
And FYI their ECU are NOT interchangeable. Bought a JB180 here in Dubai and didn't pay attention, vendor switched the ECU to a BF100 ECU and GSU displays "unknow turbine" error.
