KUALA LUMPUR, June 9 - GE Aviation, a unit of General Electric Co <GE.N> and the world's largest maker of jet engines, expects orders this year to fall 50 percent, a senior official said on Tuesday.

Jack Lutze, vice-president of sales for Europe and Africa, told Reuters that deferrals and only a few cancellations were likely next year.

"Everybody is looking to push back to 2010," Lutze told Reuters on the sidelines of an aviation conference in Kuala Lumpur.
