These things are astonishing at start up. It's a shame that no microphone will ever be able to convey what they are really like. The ignitors sound like lightning bolts when they go off close by. This is real horsepower.
Good question, it's because the A330 CF6-80E1 has a 2 parts that make up the spinner so rather than paint over 2 parts they just paint over the leading part of the spinner Have a look at this for an example. encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn%3AANd9GcQNh9C5O9UTXhyPOFUMyK1h9ATN-73nCwOakQ&usqp=CAU
I've watched so many of these engine start-ups this is by far the absolute best one. When that second engine starts up I get goosebumps every time.
makes my room shake when I play it on the speaker

Some say the GE90 startup is the best one, I stick to it: the CF6 rocks them all’
However, they have identical engine startup sound.
I don’t understand why the GE spinner art on the A330 have such small spirals. I wish they were like the 767 and the MD11s

matt18333 Thanks for the info. Really cool stuff. Interestingly enough I saw that KLMs 330s had a different style of spinner. It’s an awesome engine
Very very very nice. Amazing video. Thank you for posting this.
From cold and dark to ready for taxiing

Super video. I have a question. Why a330 Engine start No.1 first? I saw it A320 started enginw No.2
I thought is was an a321 131 at first but realised I love planes and the e190 -serise 90 md10-10
