Announced in October 1994, the Model 560XL first flew on February 29, 1996, certification was granted in April 1998, and over 1,000 have been delivered. The 2,100 nmi-range (3,900 km), 20,200 lb (9,200 kg) MTOW jet is powered by two 3,650–4,080 lbf (16.2–18.1 kN) PW545 turbofans, has the cruciform tail and unswept supercritical wing of the ...
GA-ASI's design is larger than the Sea Avenger and is powered by the Pratt & Whitney PW815 high-bypass turbofan, the same engine used on the Gulfstream G600. Generating 16,000 lb (7,300 kg) of thrust, it is four times more powerful than the Predator C's PW545B turbofan, [31] and the most powerful engine used by any Stingray competitor. [32]
U.S. regulators are requiring immediate inspections and possible repairs to Pratt & Whitney engines on some Airbus passenger jets because of a manufacturing problem that could cause parts to wear ...
The Pratt & Whitney PW1000G family, also marketed as the Pratt & Whitney GTF (geared turbofan), is a family of high-bypass geared turbofan engines produced by Pratt & Whitney. Following years of development and testing on various demonstrators, the program officially launched in 2008 with the PW1200G destined for the Mitsubishi SpaceJet (a ...
RTI Announces Engine Launch Customer for EB Furnace and Signs Long Term Agreement with Pratt & Whitney to Supply Rotor-Quality Titanium for Advanced Turbofan Engines PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE ...
In December 1980, Pratt & Whitney changed to a new naming system for its engines and the JT10D became the PW2037. The PW2000 is a dual-spool, axial air flow, annular combustion, high bypass turbofan with a dual-channel full authority digital engine control system. It was certified in 1984 as the first civilian FADEC-controlled aviation engine.
The PW 300 series has been developed in partnership with MTU who are responsible for the low pressure turbine. The first variant, the PW305A, has the following configuration and was designed with a core flexible enough for engines with take-off thrusts from 20 kN to 31 kN (4,500 to 7,000 lb): a single-stage fan driven by a three-stage low pressure turbine, supercharging a four-stage axial ...
