The Trent 8104/8115 were built for the original 777 and had thrusts of 104,000 and 114,000 respectively, with many new first innovations such as swept back fan blades.Never came to fruition though-GE made Boeing an offer ($500,000) to be sole supplier and so the Rolls engine was left out in the cold.unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15604463374712761656noreply@blogger.com
