@cockpitking: The GE90 Engine Eats Air At A Completely Insane Rate ✈️ At takeoff power, a single GE90 on the Boeing 777 moves so much air that — if it were water — it could drain an Olympic-sized swimming pool in roughly four minutes. That smooth spinning fan passengers casually stare at from the window is actually moving an almost incomprehensible volume every second just to launch hundreds of tonnes into the sky. Jet engines stop sounding “normal” the moment you realise they’re basically controlled hurricanes bolted to a wing. #GE90 #Boeing777 #JetEngine #AviationFacts #AvGeek
