@cockpitking: People think a jet engine just “pushes air backwards.” Not quite. A modern turbofan is compressing, igniting and controlling explosions thousands of times per minute… while turbine blades spin so fast the tips can move faster than the speed of sound. Basically a controlled physics experiment hanging under a wing carrying 300 people across the Atlantic like it’s a normal Tuesday. #JetEngine #AviationFacts #AircraftEngineering #AvGeek #CockpitKing
