jet engines

I often look up at a passing commercial airliner and wonder whether any of the passengers are gazing out the window and thinking about the people down below. I know the passengers can't see individuals who are going about their daily lives. The plane is so high that I can't hear the jet engines. In fact, I ...

They want more than a wing and a prayer. After a jet engine fan blade came loose on Southwest Flight 1380 Tuesday, killing a passenger and forcing an emergency landing, inspectors are puzzled about how it did so much damage. The FAA has ordered air-worthiness checks on 220 CFM56-7B engines ...

Still, modern jet engines are a paragon of reliability. Failures—ie, In-flight Engine Shutdowns—cause less than 3 percent of flight diversions. That's largely because airlines have robust inspection and maintenance programs. As engines cost up to $30 million and are the main thing keeping air between the ...

They were developed by French-US joint venture CFM International, which says it is the "world's leading supplier of jet engines for single-aisle aircraft".

But then in the 1980s, with a recognition that jet engines were becoming more reliable, a new set of regulations known as Extended Operations, or ETOPS, was introduced. That enabled big jets to use two big engines, instead of four small engines for long flights, and since two big jet engines are more fuel ...

Take a look at images of an early model Boeing 707 and the engines are tiny compared with those on a Boeing 737-800, which carries about the same passenger load, and the reason is not the number of engines on each of these aircraft. Developed in the 1950s, the 707 was initially fitted with turbojet ...
