This Is How Airplane Engines Are Tested
In this video, we're going to take a look inside an airplane engine test. We'll see how an engine is tested and how that testing impacts the safety of an airplane.
A Thought!
Most of us don’t give aircraft engines much thought. Sometimes, when you’re in the sky, you see the engines hanging under the wing and maybe ponder the sheer improbability of physics and everything holding together at 37,000 feet. Then you go back to your wine and iPad, comfortable that despite everything, it will all work. We take aircraft engines for granted, assuming they will work flawlessly. The manufacturer’s records and reputations assure us.
“But there is a lot of work put into getting us so comfortable and reassured.”
Interesting Fact!
There are several engine manufacturers around the world. Most of them are big names – General Electric, Rolls Royce, and Pratt & Whitney. They’ve been supplying engines to the aircraft manufacturers for years.
While there have been hiccups along the way and some aircraft types have been plagued with engine issues, they are usually relatively minor. One thing that characterizes modern jet engines, regardless of manufacturer, is their reliability.
Aircraft engines are meticulously engineered and manufactured. But once built, the engines are put through a relentless testing process.
