- This is a high power ground run performed after maintenance to check engine serviceability.
GE say this engine has the equivalent of 145 thousand horsepower!
I thought I'd upload this as it's much better quality than the original version, hope you enjoy it.
I would have liked to add some fun facts about the GE90-115B but I can't find any other than the specs below, booo to GE.
Thanks
Type: axial flow, twin-shaft, bypass turbofan engine
Length: 287 inches (7,300 mm)
Diameter: overall: 135 inches (3,400 mm); fan: 128 inches (3,300 mm)
Dry weight: 18,260 pounds (8,280 kg)
Thrust: rated at 115,540 lbf (514 kN).
Equivalent to ~145,000hp (GE Website)
Cost: $22-24 million (2009 USD)
The GE 90, BIGGER THAN MOST JETS.
Additionally you gotta love the characteristic industrial whine of that engine as it spools up, like no other...
That industrial whine presents only on the 115B and 110B. I love these engines. Really.
You are quite brave standing there while those engines are running at almost max power, seeing that safety dolly flex due to the suction created by the engine , just shows the immense power those engines have.
Sounds like 75-80% N1, am I right? That beautiful, high pitched whine that GE90s make at more than ~93% N1 is missing :(
Yes, 80%, the maximum static ground run speed.
@@mrifixplanes1813 oh hell no, push that b1tch to 105 !!!
@@puerco911 you’ve got the right idea i see...
Agreed
I love this vid more than the previous one because it this vid has the engine running on high power which is very cool and loud.❤️❤️❤️
at 1:20 I can see the nose wheel and the entire jet shaking from the amount of power these engines have. DOES GENERAL ELECTRIC KNOW HOW TO BUILD THE BEST TURBOFANS OR WHAT?
That's pretty amazing, didn't realise you could stand so close to engines at full power
This engines are Amazing i really love this powerful whine
My favorite powerful engine. Amazing sound
i cant get over how quiet they are for the work being done!
I swear the manufacturer that designed the fan in my old laptop modeled after the GE90's sounds.
Seriously your laptop can't be anything compared to the ibm server on cold start
Damn those wild almost 12k rpm 4x are just nut when they full thrust
Starts to power up on 0:49.
Right engine run.1:15 shutdown 2:29
Left engine run 2:48 shutdown both engines 4:00
you can see it putting air flow over the elevator and creating a little lift..look at the front nose wheel dancing...lol
Great video.☺️ I just subscribed to ur CZcams channel.☺️
Thanks
What a fantastic job 👍👍👍
GE-90 to the WORLD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So nice that you are back! :)
Was hoping you return at some day! Loved your videos so far and will enjoy these even more!
+Heinrich Müller Thank you very much for your kind words. I am a lot busier at work these days as I am one of the team leaders now, so I don't get the chance to get the camera out as often. I'll still be on the lookout for interesting things to film though.
Wow...she's really screaming, like summoning her successor (GE9x) to wake up from its deep slumber.
do those chocks really help in keeping this beast stationary while those engines run on high power?
+shivendra maliah Not really no, the aircraft brakes are enough.
Please tell me Mr.I.Fix.planes that is the 2 huge jet engines in this video that are running on full power louder than a lorry's or trains horn? A trains and a lorry's horn are really loud too!!
Cool dude it is actually an airliner is louder than a trucks and trains horn.A trains and trucks horn is around 129db and a jet engine is 140db
that engine looks like it's ready to tear behind. the force of it looks like it was raising the front landing gear
+HT that is the look and sound of awesomeness my friend :) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+SKBenergy Oh yes it is!
HT :)
it is putting airflow over the elevators so its liftingthe nose
777 is the best aircraft . GE90 ftw.
It's one of my favourite jetliners that have the most powerful engine according to the Guinness Book of World Records.
❤️❤️❤️😀😀😀
When you were standing at the high power engine run,was it deafening or ear splitting?
You can't stand there without hearing protection, it hurts!
Awesome video, AMAZING engine sounds,
Thanks for sharing,
👍👍👍👍👍 THUMBS UP 👍👍👍👍👍
high1voltage1rules Thanks for the comment, much appreciated 😊
Enjoyed!
Thanks
Awesome video!
+Elliot L- CBGSpotter Thanks
Who makes the best airliner. Bowing or. Larkeed martin
christina harrison neither Brunswick Co.
Incredible video, thou very high in horsepower they aren't strong in torque output much if at all, indeed they are just pushing on thin air.....had those been piston engines w wheels or rocket motors something would have ripped it off the concrete.
That air becomes pretty dense when your pushing it out the back at 115,000lbs. I'm not sure how good the calculations are but a guy over on airliners.net said "Assuming that 145,000 hp was delivered to the fan at 2552 N1 RPM, I calculate the torque to be around 298,415 ft-lb (404,597 Nm). " which is quite a lot of torque if he's correct.

Some might powerful brakes it's got
theyll need brakes and wheel chocks to keep her from runnin away
excellent video
+HT Thanks!
Super sound.....
The airflow under the wing is pulling the inboard ailerons down? [They pop back up when the power level is reduced]
Hi, on the ground and below 85knots and when one or both engines are near take-off thrust, the flaperon (inboard aileron) power control units (PCU) go into bypass mode (there's no hydraulic pressure sent to them basically), the weight of the flaperon then causes it to droop. As the 777 goes down the runway and speed increases the airloads gently float the flaperon into position, at 100knots the PCUs go into normal mode again.
As the 777 has a flaperon, (flap + aileron) it follows and fairs with the flaps (when there's no roll input). On a normal take-off, some level of flaps are usually set. This lowers the flaperon into the engine exhaust stream, the flaperon PCUs go into bypass mode to reduce the buffeting transferred from the flaperon surface to the PCUs and attaching hardware by being free to move rather than rigid. Once the aircraft has reached 100 knots the exhaust gas "cone" is being "shaped" by the airflow so buffeting on the flaperon is reduced. Basically it does it to make them last longer.
I hope that makes sense. TFW
Just a question..what was the way to make the plane staying still even the engine is running fast?
We just set the parking brake and chocks are placed just in front of the wheels for backup.
MrIfixplanes if the parking brake failed I don't think the chocks would do anything if they didn't back the power off right away. Remember that A340 that jumped the chocks and hit that barricade?
That A340 wasn't chocked according to the French Bureau d'Enquetes et d'Analyses
www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/violation-of-test-procedures-led-to-toulouse-a340-60-319969/
I don't know anybody that has had the misfortune to test them out. You'd certainly feel it if the aircraft did go over them, and then yes you'd definitely want to pull the throttles back immediately.
Nicole Stafford Why do you need spoilers for braking when GS is 0😂LOL...
Quantas mil toneladas de ar estas turbinas gigantes não joga tá louco
Don't know for sure but, I don't think that's a 777. The 777 have the three wheel trucks and this looks a little to low to the ground and just over all to small.
Simply spectacular. What power setting was that?
+turbofanlover Hi, we set them at 80% for a high power run.
+MrIfixplanes why not 105% 80% is like cruise n1 i believe
+Joseph Enigam - Firstly because that's the power setting the aircraft maintenance manual says to use, and in aircraft maintenance the manual is pretty much the law. Secondly because at 80% N1 there are sufficient pressures in the oil and fuel systems to determine if there are any leaks. Leak checking is the most common reason for carrying out ground runs.
+MrIfixplanes Thank you.
What's the purpose of the orange piece in front of the engines?
+Gd Snuff It's an "Engine Run Guard", it's there for safety foremost, and to prevent large debris from being ingested into the engine. The only places engines reach this power setting are run pens like this one, and the end of the runway at takeoff. (BA at Heathrow anyway)
its to destroy the engine when a chunk of metal is ingested into the compressor
@@mrifixplanes1813 how does the engine run guard itself not get sucked in? Is it that heavy?
Yes, it is fairly heavy, but it's mostly because it doesn't offer much in the way of air resistance. The whole cage is made of wire mesh that the air can easily pass through. It's not really for small debris, its main purpose is human safety.
Great to see and even better listening :-) it’s difficult for my old eyes to detect wheel chocks. Would two GE-90s at derated TO power be able to defeat the parking brake-or is the engineer in the cockpit pushing on the brakes with all his might?
i dont like General Electric (GE) , I Love Rolls Royce ...
