Horrendously geeky: How to build a plane engine

05/07/2010 by Kevincm

Whilst the BBC laughably calls this “How to build a Jumbo Jet Engine” (and they feature no 747’s – the traditional jumbo jet), it actually gives a very geeky insight and the sheer work that goes into the construction of a Rolls Royce Trent Engine, some peeks at the 787 and some of the first engine parts of the A350XWB.

Worth the 60 minutes it’s on for.

UK Users can access it from BBC iPlayer or at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00sz49v. Those outside the UK can’t view this as it’s restricted to UK Licence fee payers only…
