chartpolski 20,427 Posted January 29, 2022 Report Share Posted January 29, 2022 (edited) All kidding aside , I was a very minute part of the team that convinced the aeronautical world that you didn't need four, or later three , engines for a wide body to fly transatlantic. Now, its common place for twin engined aircraft. When I first went to Saudia, it was TriStars, great aircraft, then MD 11's, three engined wides. We had to be in 24 hour contact to be able to do it Now I've heard the Yanks claim they have went to the moon ! ! Cheers.

How did you achieve the thrust needed from just two, compared to the conventional (at the time) four? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rolls Royce and Pratt & Whitney were the two big boys and must have pumped billions into the R & D at a time when trans continental travel was opening up to the masses. I remember Concorde paying a visit to Jeddah and I gave some of my trainees a guided tour. I was so proud of it, then so disappointed when it was cancelled. The technology in aerospace is allways developing at a great pace. Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know that airframe design changed with the twin engine config developments but a jet engine is more than just making it bigger to be more powerful, so was curious what were the changes.
