How Do Airlines Choose Engine Suppliers When Multiple Choices Are Available?

While several modern aircraft offer specific engines as a sole source such as newer Airbus widebodies, the A220, and the Boeing 737 MAX, many others provide multiple engine choices for their airliners. When purchasing a specific aircraft type, airline operators get to choose engine options that suit their operational and other requirements. Let’s look at how engines are chosen in today’s video!

How airlines choose their turbofan engines…
Technicians - whichever is simpler to service.
Mechanics - whichever is simpler to repair.
Engineers - whichever is more reliable.
Managers - whichever is more logistically available.
Accountants - whichever is more fuel economical.
Business Administrators - whichever is cheaper.

Best On wing is Rolls-Royce Total Care program. In old or new, such F100 or A330, the best of.

[@Alpha06R]

In the case of the 787, the GEnx has better reliability than the Trent 1000; so thats why is the most preferable choice.

[@rafaelwilks]

💯

[@Jil1A]

What about fuel efficiency? How are they comparing?

[@filledwithvariousknowledge2747]

@@Jil1AGE claims 1.4% better efficiency because of the 2nd or 3rd generation carbon fibre fan blades which RR will only start on with the Ultra Fan and far behind GE’s carbon fibre fan blade evolution

[@ulysseslee9541]

when 80s-90s, the era of 747, 767, 777, A330, there is 3 brands of engines can be selected: RR, GE, PW
CFM = GE + Safran
IAE = RR + PW + Japanese Aero Engine Corporation + MTU Aero Engines (in early times, but RR leave the joint venture in 2011

[@robbyfurqon5116]

Interesting that most A330ceo operators prefer to use RR engine than GE and PW.

British Airways prefers trent 1000 because it's British-built and American Airlines prefers Genx because it's American-built

In a320 family someone once said CFM56 performs better on hot and high places

[@filledwithvariousknowledge2747]

And more reliable. Initially CFM56-5 sales were none existent until the competing IAE engine ran into huge problems and then when sales took off that replacement engine that was going to be offered instead of that CFM56 version was dropped

Doesn’t the IAE V2500 design have some influence from the RR-RB211 on the 757?

Yea and do you know how many they would have to put under the wings to get the 777 off the ground 😅😅😂

[@riogri]

What about the 767

[@filledwithvariousknowledge2747]

With the 767-300ER all 3 engine choices are directly interchangeable with the 747-400 because of tandem development

[@TheUnreadableUser]

You won't be going many places than since RR has no current offerings for the narrow body market.
