  • This is it folks! I was finally able to capture all three 767 engine takeoff sounds on camera! We have the Pratt & Whitney 4000, the Rolls Royce RB-211 and the General Electric CF6-80! Now it's your turn to pick which sound is the best of the three! I expect to see a ton of comments as all three engines are awesome! May the best engine win!
    Time stamps below for each engine if you need a second look!
    Pratt & Whitney: 0:07
    Rolls Royce: 1:35
    General Electric: 3:03
    Below are links to the full length videos of each takeoff:
    Pratt & Whitney:
    • Absolutely Fantastic B...
    Rolls Royce:
    • Awesome British Airway...
    General Electric:
    • Absolutely Phenomenal ...

    This is actually a tough decision. The CF6's & PW4000s had the best spool ups. The RB211's screams full power goodness in your face and was the loudest out of all of them which is definitely good! This is a tough call. If i picked one. The slight edge goes to the RB211's. The order would be.
    1. RB 211's-Epicness Level-(10/10) Spool Up-(9/10) Overall-(9.5/10)
    2. GE CF6's-Epicness Level-(9.5/10) Spool Up-(9/10) Overall-(9.2/10)
    3. PW 4000's-Epicness Level-(8.5/10) Spool Up-(9.5/10) Overall-(9/10)
    The best comparison video i've seen! All three of these are awesome engines! Liked & Faved!

      Yes, but the CF6 sheared off and severed itself in
      mid flight. Pratt and Whitney on the other hand was the first powerhouse for the 747 and was almost always the most powerful for many planes and the most efficient.

    GE CF6 gets my vote for 2 reasons...1. Ima sucker for that deep, throaty engine growl. 2. The PW was the quietest, the RR the loudest, the GE has the best of both worlds. It has the aforementioned engine growl which the PW lacks, but isn't as obnoxiously loud as the RR...I love these engine comparisons btw, keep up the good work & thx 4 posting!!!

    GE for me!!! It sounds so smooth even if in the same time, we can feel the power of the thrust produced by this awesome engine. I prefer RR engine used on B777, the spool up sound is very typical, and I like to hear it before full power.
    I have to say, like many of other people I think, that I downloaded many of your movies on my computer, and watch them regulary just to enjoy the sound of planes taking off or landing from onboard view!

    2. RR
    3. PW
    The GE definitely has the best spool up sound as well :D

    Nice video, they all sound so good, but the RB and the GE just edge it over the PWs. The GE has to be my favourite though as the RB211s are best on the 757s

  • @domminickcohn-belmont6803

    RR all the way! Love the engine scream on the takeoff

  • @christophergondowidjojo2509

    The Pratt & Whitney 4000. The Rolls Royce Trent RB-211 and The General Electric CF6-80 Is The Best Engine Sound Ever and AWESOME!!!!!!!!

    GE's CF6-80s have the best "curb appeal" and they sound ANGRY! I'd be tempted to "TOGA" all the time, just to hear the growl!

    I vote for the Pratt and Whitney. But if it had a Pratt and Whitney RB-2800CB-16 it would be even better!

    From 3:45 the humming is reminiscent of the JT3D.
