Don't forget they went bust some time ago and had to rationalise their product range. I think they purchased Allison turbine for the lower end of the aviation market and some other overseas companies to broaden their spectrum especially into the maritime sphere.
Just one correction - For the last 50 years RR PLC has been a completely different company from the much smaller RR car company (single factory, subsidiary of BMW).
The commentator said the company made a name for itself in automotive circuits which is true regardless that they are a completely different company now, regards.

@@DGalaxies Simple. There was issues with the Trent 900, RR did not respond very well to those issues, and thus Emirates and other A380 users, changed from the Trent 900 to the PW7000 on their orders. Can't blame them.
The worlds most efficient turbine to date is the RR Trent XWB that powers the A350. It`s expected to be overtaken by the GE9X but this engine which powers the B777X still hasn`t entered service because of said planes delays so we won`t know for sure till then. In the meantime Ultra-fan promises worthwhile gains in fuel efficiency in the near future so long as it can be accompanied by expected reliability.
@@markn6941 I`d guess we`ll see it first on A350 as the demonstrator is in that output range, but isn`t the B787 in more need of a fuel efficient engine? RR have indicated that they await interest from the aircraft manufacturers before committing themselves to too much expensive development, but it seems they are in a good place to get started once interest is shown.
Hi Charles I retired from Hants & Sussex Aviation 18 months ago We overhauled RR Darts for decades Also saw one in the lobby of the Smithsonian air & space museum in Washington DC
@@schurb oh ok. I only ask as I've worked at RR for a short period now and trying to learn from others. Are the leaks from general pipework around the core? Or around the gearbox, filters etc on the case?
I was used to seeing the Pratt & Whitney eagle on the engine cowlings of Air Zimbabwe's Boeing fleet in the 80's & 90's as a kid. At the time didnt know GE & Rolls-Royce also made engines.
P&W Has an even bigger reach when you consider turboprop engines too. P&W engines can be found on dash 8's worldwide not to mention the extensive reach of the PT6 on many smaller turboprop commercial aircraft.
Former Boeing Everett.... been up close and personal with the GE 9X used on the Triple 7 (777). It's easy to remember because G = Gigantic, E = Engine, 9 = nine feet diameter of main fan. It's so big it won't fit inside a 1 story building. With engine and cowling the GE 9X stands about 1 1/2 stories tall. The 2 GE 9X's on 777 and 787 have almost as much power as the 4 smaller engines on 747. Pilots say planes equipped with it is like a powerful sports car. It might not allow Triple 7 to go 'vertical', but it can sure get close to it on extreme takeoff.
Not mentioned here - some engines are better optimized for LONG HAUL flights, while others are optimized for takeoffs and landings (ie. short jumps). GE90 engines for eg. were developed for use in the middle east. Also, some engines are more expensive up front, but will pay back their expenses with savings. Also the MAINTENANCE is key as some areas have nil for engine O/H services.
GE90 for the middle east... eh? As far as I can tell BA was the launch customer (for a short time in 1995-6) and while Emirates bought a lot of GE90 777s, I can't easily find any evidence for that.
@@Anolaana EK used RR as their choice of the 3 choices on their 3 -200’s, 6 -200ER’s and 12 -300’s (P&W or RR as the GE90 wasn’t actually certified for the non ER variant due to no orders). Only from -300ER they used GE due to being exclusive engine
Let me help you out. 777-300ER - GE90-115B only 777-300 (Non ER) - GE90, RR Trent 800 and PW 777-200LR - GE only (GE90-115B or 110B) 777-200 and 200 ER - GE90- (Commonly the 90B and 94B but 85B on some BA aircraft), RR Trent 800 (892 or 895), PW4000. On British Airways 777-200s they have both RR and GE engines G-VXXX are GE engines G-YXXX are RR Engines G-XXXX are GE engines too United 777-200s are mixed GE and PW but idk the registrations for them. If you want GE90s I recommend just looking for a 300ER flight but the GEs on the 777-200 series sound incredible with a grunt/roar sound to them
I don't know much about jet engines or what engine is on what plane. One thing I do know, though, is that, to my eyes, the Boeing 787 is a beautiful looking plane from the outside. I'd love to experience being inside one.
I would say Pratt & Whitney, as they pioneered the jet airliner industry, with the JT3D, JT8D and JT9D. They can made with those engines some insanely good sounds. Just listen to a JT8D roar!
I worked at P&WA for a few years in the late 1970s. I worked assembling JT8s and JT9s and used to get to go up to the test cells and hook engines up for test and watch the test. It was a great job, but I had an electronics background I wanted to use.i left and got a job where I flew on some of the 737s that I probably worked on the engines when flying to Prudhoe Bay from Anchorage to get to and from work a few times a month. We used to see the customers on the assembly paper work.
You completely overlooked the turboprop market. With that, Pratt & Whitney might be number 1 as their engines power the Dash 8 (100, 200, 300, 400), ATR42, ATR72, PC12, ect.
CFM are relatively easy to work on. V2500 and PW1100 are an eternal pain in that regard. GEnX and Trent1000 are my personal favorite when it comes to flying. But I also have a big interest in the GE Honda HF120
Three of them, are manufacturing very charming jet engines. But personally I love Pratt and Whitney company for its quality and its very powerful research center ( specially on super alloys fields)
General Electric and Pratt & Whitney insisted on a winner-take-all contract due to the $500 million investment in engine modifications needed to meet the requirements. GE bought their way onto the 777-300ER by subsidizing the development of the engine pylon - PW was not willing to do that.
RR, The best. Wonder how different things would be now if Britain hadn't been forced to give the USA the Jet Engine because of WWII ? we must all remember the Great Man Sir Frank Whittle, who was even dismissed by the RAF and British government for many years with his invention!!! THE JET ENGINE, he then came up with the idea of the modern bypass jet before the rest of them! The man was a genius, the rest is history as they say.
Looking at the market it looks like GE dominate Boeing aircraft and RR dominate Airbus aircraft. I do think the days of offering multi choice engines on aircraft in the future has gone, the 787 being the last aircraft to have 2 engine choices.
But having a choice of engines is a big adavntage for airlines - it mitigates risk (if one manufacturer's engine is grounded ther'es always the other) and also allows more price negotiation. This makes a design with a choice of engines more attractive and so boosts the airframe maker's sales I don't think that logic has changed so I expect thee will be future designs offering an engine choice, especially among narrowbodies where there is more competition.
Being a British guy I would have to say RR as they were the first company to manufacture Aero engines that were reliable and where the beating heart of the SPITFIRE and the American P51 and RR where the first to make Jet engines which is also a British invention (Frank Whittle)
The first jet engine went in the air in 39 and not in the UK. Later the first axial engines - which is todays technology - were as well not made in the UK. These engines powered fighters and reconnaisance aircraft that showed their tail to the Spitfire with ease.
It's GE ...by a large margin.....then the rest fighting for the balance.. Rolls missing out on about 85% of the market..no regional or narrow body engine def.hurts their market share.. Pratt needs a new widebody engine to compete.. Doing an excellent job on the regional and narrow body markets though..
@@topethermohenes7658 At the talk given by Rolls Royce scalability was mentioned. They are going for the biggest first as proof of concept. Rolls-Royce East says the UltraFan programme - which involves a new engine core and geared fan architecture - is scalable to provide 25,000-100,000lb-plus (111kN-446kN) of thrust, making it suitable to power single-aisle and long-haul aircraft. Source Flight lobal March 2019.
I work for GE aerospace. Kind of odd what's going on with air bus though. We aren't making any leap parts for them until they use up their stock. It's only a .002 change but apparently will reduce fuel consumption?
Does anyone know what engines the regional jets from Embraer and Bomardier use? I recall seeing an Allison engine on a regional jet, but my recollection could be wrong.
Bombardier use GE Passport on their Global line, and GE CF34 on their regional 900. The Challenger 650 also runs CF34's while the little Challenger 350 runs HTF7350's from Honeywell.
Possibly an A350neo but I really think RR should’ve waited for the application of a new engine before building it though on the other hand it can be a demonstrator that tests modifications for a different widebody engine built by them
@@wasmiddelsap3379 the GE9X is the largest and most efficient certified engine to date . And the Ultrafan will be used for Airbus , Boeing jets and other suitable applications 👍
Yeah, GE9X is 134 inch diameter fan, the current ultrafan demonstrator has a 140 inch diameter fan. I work at RR and have seen the pictures of the build, the size is just incredible! Although I'm on the same campus as the engine itself, I have yet to actually go see it in person. The good thing about the ultrafan is its ability to scale to fit different airframes as and when there are some confirmed, though my own opinion is that Airbus and Boeing want to see it in action before wanting it on their airframes. Will be interesting to see RR entering the narrowbody market with some scaled down ultrafans, as the engines they produce currently are either for smaller jets or wide body aircraft.
P&W also has engines on the 777 with the PW4000, the first powerplant to fly the 777. They also power 757s with the PW2000 and the A318 with the PW6000. Also, Rolls Royce was never exclusive to widebodies, they’ve made engines for the 757 and 717 I also kinda liked how the PW1000 engines on the A220 shot at 3:47 looked like just giant electric fans lol😂
Not true at all about Rolls Royce Engines not exclusive for widebodys because the Lockheed Tristar L1011s all had Rolls Royce Engines on them and those most definitely were widebody heavy jets 💯💯💯💯
"Rolls Royce made a name for itself in the automotive market" ... well yes, but Rolls Royce Motor Cars is a totally separate company to Rolls Royce Holdings (including RR Aerospace). To the unitiated - which Simple Flying's excellent videos will appeal (as well as us aviation fanatics) - this distinct difference has just been re-muddied.
For me, A330-343/342/341, any A330-300 powered by Rolls Royce Trent 700 is my favorite aircraft hands down
My two fav engines are the GE90 and the RB211. Very different sounding and looking engines...but both are awesome, IMO.
Yass!!!!!! The Rolls Royce Engines i love as well
And the roller coaster that the RB211 caused

But having a choice of engines is a big adavntage for airlines - it mitigates risk (if one manufacturer's engine is grounded ther'es always the other) and also allows more price negotiation. This makes a design with a choice of engines more attractive and so boosts the airframe maker's sales I don't think that logic has changed so I expect thee will be future designs offering an engine choice, especially among narrowbodies where there is more competition.
Rollroyce's engine cowling look nice. They tend to hide the mechanisms from back of the engine.
I think the 3 of them do a great job.
Pratt & Whitney all the wayy ! 💯🦅
My favourites are GE90, RR Trent 700 and Trent XWB
And GE has engines on the 777-300er and the upcoming 777x
My preference is the Rolls-Royce/Snecma Olympus 593
especially when you have four of them on an airplane.
It's interesting to see ge/cfm and p&w have all collaborated while rr are still manufacturing there own product
RB211-535 on the 757 is the best and the Trent 700 on the A330
Why is that the best? The famed powerhouse 757 is the PW2000 variant.
RR is my preference.
The a330s Trent 700 sounds great and looks nice.
OH, YEAH! Trent 700 sounds amazing and the best
Rolls Royce is my pic, Outof the UK I think their the best. Though I do like the GE-7000 for the A-380.
From the cost of maintaining a jet engine for narrow body and wide body aircraft, what engine is the cheapest to maintain and is not easily damaged?
What about Safran and CFM?
Being a British guy I would have to say RR as they were the first company to manufacture Aero engines that were reliable and where the beating heart of the SPITFIRE and the American P51 and RR where the first to make Jet engines which is also a British invention (Frank Whittle)
The first jet engine went in the air in 39 and not in the UK. Later the first axial engines - which is todays technology - were as well not made in the UK. These engines powered fighters and reconnaisance aircraft that showed their tail to the Spitfire with ease.
Are you for real? Are you forgetting the P&W Wasp's?
Briggs and Stratton is my favorite engine.
You should do a video on largest MROs for ending overhaul.
Oh yeah GE90-115B my favorite
It's GE ...by a large margin.....then the rest fighting for the balance..
Rolls missing out on about 85% of the market..no regional or narrow body engine def.hurts their market share..
Pratt needs a new widebody engine to compete..
Doing an excellent job on the regional and narrow body markets though..
Its not missing out, its just specialization
Rolls Royce needs to re-enter the single aisle market. See if Ultrafan pulls this off.
Ultrafan is gonna be the largest turbofan in modern times, I think it'd be very difficult to scale it down to narrow bodies
@@topethermohenes7658 At the talk given by Rolls Royce scalability was mentioned. They are going for the biggest first as proof of concept. Rolls-Royce
East says the UltraFan programme - which involves a new engine core and geared fan architecture - is scalable to provide 25,000-100,000lb-plus (111kN-446kN) of thrust, making it suitable to power single-aisle and long-haul aircraft. Source Flight lobal March 2019.
My preference is P&W, because I work there!
I work for GE aerospace. Kind of odd what's going on with air bus though. We aren't making any leap parts for them until they use up their stock. It's only a .002 change but apparently will reduce fuel consumption?
What change?
Rolls Royce actually mastered jet powered VTOL with the flying bedstead for the military that Bristol Siddeley then developed
Trent is my go ❤
Does anyone know what engines the regional jets from Embraer and Bomardier use?
I recall seeing an Allison engine on a regional jet, but my recollection could be wrong.
Bombardier use GE Passport on their Global line, and GE CF34 on their regional 900. The Challenger 650 also runs CF34's while the little Challenger 350 runs HTF7350's from Honeywell.
I own a few of Rolls Royce shares so no doubt RR has my vote.
Pratt & Whitney is my preference
My preference? The beautiful beast, GE90-115B
Realy I like this factory
Witch Aircraft will use the Ultra fan engine?
Interesting
Possibly an A350neo but I really think RR should’ve waited for the application of a new engine before building it though on the other hand it can be a demonstrator that tests modifications for a different widebody engine built by them
Possible applications
787NG , A321 stretch , a350 neo , 797 .
It’ll be testing new technology I doubt it will go on a wing, well any time soon
How the hell do all of these joint ventures and cooperations work between direct competitors?
The GE9X on the 777x is set to be the biggest and most efficient engine
Nope the Rolls royce Ultrafan is slightly bigger and rumors are they will be used for upcoming airbus aircrafts
@@wasmiddelsap3379 But the key thing is it’s not yet in service
@@wasmiddelsap3379 the GE9X is the largest and most efficient certified engine to date .
And the Ultrafan will be used for Airbus , Boeing jets and other suitable applications 👍
@@mmm0404 yea to date thats true. But i think the maybe upcoming a350 neo will use it first.
Yeah, GE9X is 134 inch diameter fan, the current ultrafan demonstrator has a 140 inch diameter fan. I work at RR and have seen the pictures of the build, the size is just incredible! Although I'm on the same campus as the engine itself, I have yet to actually go see it in person. The good thing about the ultrafan is its ability to scale to fit different airframes as and when there are some confirmed, though my own opinion is that Airbus and Boeing want to see it in action before wanting it on their airframes. Will be interesting to see RR entering the narrowbody market with some scaled down ultrafans, as the engines they produce currently are either for smaller jets or wide body aircraft.
P&W also has engines on the 777 with the PW4000, the first powerplant to fly the 777. They also power 757s with the PW2000 and the A318 with the PW6000.
Also, Rolls Royce was never exclusive to widebodies, they’ve made engines for the 757 and 717
I also kinda liked how the PW1000 engines on the A220 shot at 3:47 looked like just giant electric fans lol😂
Not true at all about Rolls Royce Engines not exclusive for widebodys because the Lockheed Tristar L1011s all had Rolls Royce Engines on them and those most definitely were widebody heavy jets 💯💯💯💯
@@ericjones7769 yeah I said that
@@HesJustSteven oh ok my bad yea i read it wrong what you were saying lol
"Rolls Royce made a name for itself in the automotive market" ... well yes, but Rolls Royce Motor Cars is a totally separate company to Rolls Royce Holdings (including RR Aerospace). To the unitiated - which Simple Flying's excellent videos will appeal (as well as us aviation fanatics) - this distinct difference has just been re-muddied.
Separate now, but the name's a giveaway that it was always the case.
I like the engine that makes the best noise!
Rolls Royce every time.
It’s not only GE. It’s GE in a joint venture with Safran forming CFM. Please correct your title.
Try 1:35. And not all GE engines are joint ventures.
GE makes 767 engines also and P&W makes 757 engines
What engines are on the md11?
Roll-Royce
Preference? Simple RR.
My preference is Rolls Royce. They are the best.
I started golf 6 months ago, fancy a match play?
CFM on A320CEO is absolute beast
For A320CEO nothing can beat the IAE V2500
RR, as they’re still British. But they really need to get into the narrow body market more.
my favourate is GE then P&w then RR engine man for 20 yrs
I’m not going to blindly say GE90 like everyone else and say RB211 is my favorite. (By sound, of course)
