A Honeywell GTCP36-150(CX) auxiliary power unit mounted in the tail of a Cessna Model 750 Citation X. Honeywell auxiliary power units are a series of gas turbine auxiliary power units (APU) made by Honeywell Aerospace. Honeywell started manufacturing APUs in the early 1950s and since then they can be found on many aircraft. [1]
It was initially developed by Garrett AiResearch, for use as an APU for McDonnell Douglas DC-10. [1] Garrett was merged into AlliedSignal in 1985, then into Honeywell in 1999. Honeywell still provide support for the TSCP700's in circulation. Besides the DC-10, it is also used as APU on the MD-11 and Airbus A300/A310. [2]
Honeywell offers a number of products and services across its four business groups: Aerospace, Home and Building Technologies (HBT), Safety and Productivity Solutions (SPS), and Performance Materials and Technologies (PMT). This is a partial list of products manufactured and services offered by Honeywell.

Honeywell TFE731 and S-duct intake of a Dassault Falcon 900EX exposed during maintenance View of a TFE731-4R in maintenance with cowlings, afterbody and thrust reverser removed. The TFE731 was based on the core of the TSCP700, which was specifically developed for use as the auxiliary power unit (APU) on the McDonnell Douglas DC-10. The design ...
The first German jet engines built during the Second World War used a mechanical APU starting system designed by the German engineer Norbert Riedel.It consisted of a 10 horsepower (7.5 kW) two-stroke flat engine, which for the Junkers Jumo 004 design was hidden in the engine nose cone, essentially functioning as a pioneering example of an auxiliary power unit for starting a jet engine.
In 1974, Honeywell released the 68/80 which added cache memory in each processor and support for a large (2-8 million word) directly addressable memory. [3] In 1975, the 6000-series systems were renamed as Level 66 , which were slightly faster (to 1.2 MIPS) and offered larger memories.
The Honeywell HTF7000 is a turbofan engine produced by Honeywell Aerospace. Rated in the 6,540–7,624 lbf (29.09–33.91 kN) range, the HTF7000 is used on the Bombardier Challenger 300/350, Gulfstream G280, Embraer Legacy 500/450 and the Cessna Citation Longitude. Its architecture could be extended for a range of 8,000 to 10,000 lbf (36 to 44 ...
