If your amazed it can stop a 400 ton plane.. god just wait till you see how game changing shockingly powerful they are.. they can no only stop them but they can make them fly.
Ich würde sogar empfehlen diesen Kanal komplett aus dem Markt zu nehmen
Reverse thrust is an indicator of technological marvel? Hasn’t this technology been around for decades and also appears on literally every airliner?
-The A-380 only has inboard thrust reversers and great brakes.
I had the opportunity in my military years to know pilots . Those power plants are amazing . Wow !
thumbs up to the amazing engineers creating these engines without googling stuff up.
The guys at Rolls Royce are simply standing there...laughing
It astounds me that someone can design an aircraft that can carry such humongous weights! 😮😊😊😊

I’ve flown in the passenger compartment in the rear, a nice comfortable ride. When I was deployed to Rota Spain with Fleet Hospital, five, you could hear the screaming Mimi‘s, as I called them, leaving almost around the clock. And awesome aircraft.
Flew in a C5 from Diego Garcia to Perth, Australia. Huge plane.
The A380 engines have twice the power of those in the C5...
What about the ge9x 777 engines?
Airline mechanic. Love GE engines. I think the civilian version is the CF6.
One of the best informational videos I've seen. Good wording. Great visuals. From the commercial version of the J-79 (CJ805) from Evendale Ohio to the leading edge of engine technology by GE today, I can see great futures for both the company and the aircraft manufacturers in need of new power plant designs.
The C-5M Super Galaxy is equipped with five sets of landing gear, 28 wheels, four General Electric CF6-80C2-L1F (F-138) commercial engines.
The C-5A and C-5B variants had the General Electric TF-39 engines. Those engines had a familiar scream as the engines spun up or prepared to land.
General Electric made the TF-39s not P&W.
What's a C-5N? You mean C-5B? There's also a C-5C(2 of them) or there was.

@@LiPo5000 Does that include the 10-12 out in the Boneyard at Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ?
GE 90's used in the 777 are almost twice as powerful, maybe the TF39 's were the most powerful in the late 1960's. Still an amazing airplane.
Yes they are , I spent the last eight years of a very long career in the airlines on the 777.
Those engines are incredible. The navy uses the same engine core to power their destroyers
@@robertlyon8876 You made it, good for you ! I retired from a 25 year law enforcement Pilot career, maritime survellaillance ,caribbean sea.Flew an overweight special mission King Air B200T , it was fun.
@@jjsifo1 Glad to be done , six years of retirement, just short of 45 years mostly long haul . I do miss the people I worked with , but I don’t miss the industry. IT’s unfortunately going woke .Cheers
@@robertlyon8876 It is going woke, take care !

Super heavy power engines 👌!!! Amazing!!!
The A380 is a big plane.. Huge
Great Video
A veteran captain on 747 and A340-600, said that he typically pumped six metric tons of Jet A-1 through the 747's engines during the few seconds of reverse thrust. That's 1.5 metric tons per engine. Imagine what the fuel lines look like.
Sadly he lied to you…they don’t use 12000 lbs of fuel in the reverse phase.
Amazing peice of kit, well done America 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Love your videos, recent watcher from another heavy vehicle driver. Pat.
This is absolutely magnificent I've never seen a plane like this one before. 😃😀👍
Those are absolutely massive engines! 😮
Not compared to the GE9X
Nowadays just average!
Of course they are.. They’re meant to produce thrust to what.. 200 tonnes of steel?
amazing!!!
even God when seeing this great machine, asked himself is there a god greater then him? And as lightning and fire flashed across the universe the answer was yes G.E.
Awesome Video
Die C 5 Galaxy hat ein beindruckendes T-Leitwerk. Die Tragflächen, als Schulterdecker ausgeführt, sind richtig positioniert. Wenn man die Boeing 777 mit dem T-Leitwerk und
die Triebwerke, wie bei der erfolgreichen 727, anordnen würde braucht man nur noch die Tragflächen um ein Segment nach hinten verschieben. Gehe davon aus, dass die
tolle 777 bei gleicher Belastung und gleicher Betankung 800 km mehr Reichweite erreicht.
some dude PUSHING a breaker bar wrench - duh! - go round to other side and pull it - basic mechanics training from 60 years ago - so much is lost with time!! such a mighty machine!!😊😊😊
Wow.
'nuff said.
At GE, quality, is job one! Opps, that's Ford. But these are some bad boy engines, made in America!
Did you mean "oops instead of "opps?"
Those flock of birds on the tarmac welcoming the C5
Parece una Ballena flotando en el aire. Sehr beeindrucken, hammer.
Don't brag
You are not the only one the world
you are showing the GE CF6 engines on the C-5M Super Galaxy, but are describing the TF-39 of the C5A, C5B, and C5C (original) Galaxy.
Super High Bypass Turbofans!! It's kinda funny to realize that over 75% (or more) of the thrust comes from the bypass air and not so much the jet exhaust! Were these engines ever used on a commercial\civilian planes??
There is no "Super" category, that would be Ultra. However, these engines are only "High Bypass".
Great video O did enjoy it thanks!
Everytime the host mentions the TF-39 they show pictures of the CF6
Boeing and GE, match made in heaven.
Might want to check your facts. The C-5 was built by Lockheed in Marietta.
The 1st commercial jet to use GE jet engines was the Convair 880. Then the 990 had GE fan engines with the fans in the rear.
It will send many to heaven for sure.
Too bad there were only 5 orders filled recently. The C-5 is being discontinued and replaced by the C-17.
The GE90.
There are rocket engines that have less thrust.
Rocket power plants operate on a different principle, the fast transfer of weight.
It’s 400 ton not “400 tons engines”.
Maravilhoso !!
They love the word meticulous
Merci pour votre diction claire, distincte et sans accent. Ce qui me permet de suivre votre chaine en anglais.thank you so much,from France.
Reverse thrust? Impressive maybe but only 80% of forward thrust when using bypass engines.
TF-39s sound great.
Along with the flaps and brakes.
Fighter pilot on escort mission to cargo pilot: “Hey watch this” and does a roll
Cargo pilot says, “That was cool. Watch this” 5 minutes later he says, “What do you think of that?”
Fighter pilot: “What did you do?”
Cargo pilot: “Restroom break”
It looks to the Antonov An-225.
How much airlines could save by reverse thrust,No Push Back Needed
In San Diego once a pilot tried that on a commercial jet. It blew in the terminal's plate glass windows.
I know a guy that flew this beast during his AF career. One of his flights consisted of taking the NR-1 submarine across the country from Virginia to Commiefornia or someplace like that.
What is about General Electric GE90. I think C-5 engine are nowadays quite old fashioned
C5A is an old Airplane but still impressive, yes GE90 and G9X are the most powerful today.
Yes. Lockheed built the C-141 that was designed by Convair. Lockheed then used that same windshield and flight deck design for the C-5. And Convair did that engineering when Kennedy was president.
Surprised they don't put for GENX's on the C5s.
If they can make 400 tons fly then of course they could stop the same 400 ton object....
The wheel brakes help stop the plane more then the engines do....
Put some handles on the fuselage so the Afghans don't fall off
LOL …forgive me lord.
If they tried to stop this for hundred ton plane using only reverse thrusters, they would run off the end of the runway. Every time.
They don't have thrusters. That is movie talk. They have thrust reversers. And these are so good that the A-380 only has thrust reversers on the inboard engines. Of course, they certainly also use big brakes.
@@danielocarey9392 yeah yeah yeah. And it's phasers that they don't have. Phasers
is that the model they were hanging off at Kabul airport?
Do they even fly the c5 anymore ?
Too much hype for me in the script and vioce-over style. All not needed, the kit speaks for itself.
Yeah, every little detail is described as massive and awe inspiring. It makes it less awe inspiring if you keep saying that for everything.
The script sucks, for sure.
Available in kit form?
I use to work for Generous Electric.
Somehow, I thought this was going to be about jet engines. I was wrong.
So the engines are so powerful they can stop the plane? Who’s the dope that came up with that caption?
Well, know that the clamshell doors cannot redirect all the thrust to the front. So stopping them can be a challenge. However, the A-380 only uses reverse thrust on the inboard engines. And brakes and tires do the rest of the stopping.
hello from SOC/WAHQ mister 😍😍😍
The MAX8 is the one that flies into the ground.
Everything is great, until an airline mechanic makes mistakes servicing it.
Boeing offers so many extra features in their planes, these days. 😁
Possibly. But they need to return to cables for flight controls. If hydraulics or batteries fail, the pilots can still control the aircraft with more effort. But Boeing is often the lowest bidder. And to be this, they must compromise safety. And they do. The DC-8, 880 and 990 had 3-wing spars for safety. Boeing just had 2 to save money. The Convairs had separate pressurized hatches for hydraulic pumps than in the wheel wells. Boeing did not. So, if a 707 put up the wheels while one tire was hot, it could sever hydraulic lines, bringing down the airplane.
Is it Possible for a C5 to land on A CVN?
I know how to transfer the heavy duty engines steadily and smoothly
GE and A380? It was not a match!
MashaAllah
Yeah but Wilbur can the damn thing fly?
Vanakkam,Super very very good, Jai Hind
👍👍👍
Hilarious....you're talking about TF-39 engines but these are the new military version of the commercial CF-6.
This is rather unerwhelming. Here we are talkining up these engine like they are the next bing thing. But they are far from that. These engines are/were widely used in commercial avaition. So reverse thrust stopping power has been a thing for quite a while. Also the power plants here only put out 43,000Lb--f each The Airbus A380 and Boeing 777 which use either the GP7270 or the Rollys Royce Trent 900 which produces 81,500Lb-f of thurst each. Even the newer A350 using the Rolls Royce XWB-84 engine produces 84,200Lb-f of thrust but has an option to go up to the XWB-97 for a massive 97,000Lb-f. Still the C-5 Galaxy is an amazing plane and back in the 70's it was for sure ahead of its time.
Well, the video got you to watch it by speaking of thrust reversing on the C-5A. But that was only to get you to watch it. But know that the A-380 only has thrust reversing on the inboard engines. Interesting isn't it. I imagine their brakes are pretty awesome.
Antonovs baby boy
would have been nice to hear it insted of all BS talking over it,,
BS? Boy Scout?
My respect for G.E technology.
✝️🇺🇲✝️🇺🇲🇮🇱✡️ ✈️✈️✈️
Antonov AN-124가 더 크지요
Buran was not a Space Shuttle, if we’re using NASA terminology
The Buron was flown once into space, and without people in it. But it was designed for cosmonauts to be inside for space flights, I understand.
The Boeing 777. Now, is that the one that flies itself into the ground, bursts into flames because of its' batteries, or sheds doors in flight??
That's the 787.
Ay 🙈 your macho machine 😂
Too bad GE doesn't make their PTAC units with this level of 'quality and engineering excellence' Lol
Why don’t they try to GE 9X engines are more powerful than all four on the C5. Check the thrust ratio.
Aircraft are basically designed around the engines. Because of things like weight and clearances a new engine design usually isn't installed on planes they were not designed for.
🙏🙏👍🎉
A 787 out powers that. and RR plants witch where intentionally made w/ additional power. It would be 2 = 1 787 takes her lead.
What is that background music from 3:46 to 5:44?
They also pollute like mad😏cough! cough!
The fan blade have wrong angel
Many designs today have a sweeping angular change from spool to tip.
Nothing compared the GE-90.
How much did GE pay for this commercial?
Indeed. The script is not heavy on actual technical details, it’s too fluffy.
Someone got a kickback lol
Nothing
I’d say $100k
Be thankful that we have such wonderful Engering
Not good : A lot of grandiose talk and no technical details about the subject ...
I know. It was kind of introductory. Oh well. I liked it anyway.
This is made by American for American consumers. Of course it will be grandiose talk and few technical details.
An annoying sales pitch
It's too expensive to be used on the ground
U guys’ delivery is sooooo damn slow, I’m generally am a patient guy but this is just way to mush pause.
i wanted to hear about the engines not the aircraft!!
This GE Engines has evolved tp power the latest Airliners and Galaxy Heavy lifter C-5M type and Boeing 777-X Aircraft.
The Boeing 777-300ER is Only Aircraft operates the Sole GE90-115 Turbofan Engines and Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner Aircraft.
Yes but whose to get the credit.
God Almighty or Mankind?
I choose God Almighty.😅😅😅
God certainly gave GE and others the materials and intelligence for these great feats. But we can hear who listened to God to build thee great airplanes and their engines.
