Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On September 29, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of GE Aerospace (“General Electric Company” or the “Company”) elected Wesley G. Bush to the Board, effective December 1, 2025. In addition, following the announcement of current director Stephen Angel’s new role as CEO of CSX Corp., Mr. Angel plans to resign from the Board effective December 4, 2025. In connection with these changes, the Board will increase its size to accommodate the election of Mr. Bush and approved a corresponding decrease in its size following Mr. Angel’s departure. A copy of the press release announcing the changes in the composition of the Board is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The Board has determined that Mr. Bush is an independent director under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards and the Company’s independence guidelines, as set forth in the Board’s Governance Principles.

The Board has appointed Mr. Bush to serve as a member of its Audit Committee. Upon Mr. Angel’s departure from the Board, Catherine Lesjak will serve as Chair of the Management Development & Compensation Committee and Thomas Horton will serve as Chair of the Governance & Public Affairs Committee.

Mr. Bush will participate in the compensation and benefit program for the Company’s independent directors, which is described on page 22 of the Company’s Proxy Statement for its Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 6, 2025, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2025.
