[1][2][3] The engine was originally designed and produced by Zanzottera Technologies of Italy, but the design was sold, along with the rest of the company ...
Blade off testing or blade out testing is a specific form of air safety testing required by the Federal Aviation Administration and other safety agencies to certify safety performance of jet engines. The tests require engine manufacturers to carry out at least two tests of the engine, to make sure that the engine can survive a compressor or fan ...
Saab 2000 EICAS on the two central screens. An engine-indicating and crew-alerting system (EICAS) [1] is an integrated system used in modern aircraft to provide aircraft flight crew with instrumentation and crew annunciations for aircraft engines and other systems. On EICAS equipped aircraft the "recommended remedial action" is called a checklist.
FADEC. A full authority digital engine (or electronics) control (FADEC) is a system consisting of a digital computer, called an "electronic engine controller" (EEC) or " engine control unit " (ECU), and its related accessories that control all aspects of aircraft engine performance. FADECs have been produced for both piston engines and jet engines.

Components of jet engines. Diagram of a typical gas turbine jet engine. Air is compressed by the compressor blades as it enters the engine, and it is mixed and burned with fuel in the combustion section. The hot exhaust gases provide forward thrust and turn the turbines which drive the compressor blades. 1.
An aircraft engine, often referred to as an aero engine, is the power component of an aircraftpropulsion system. Aircraft using power components are referred to as powered flight.[1] Most aircraft engines are either piston enginesor gas turbines, although a few have been rocket poweredand in recent years many small UAVshave used electric motors.
