GE 90-110B1

• Similar MCT as GE 90-113B and GE 90-115B

• Reason for selection – To overcome ‘cruise drag’

• High Take-off Thrust – Just a BONUS!

• Thrust difference – Takeoff Vs. Cruise = 760N

• Composite fan blades – lighter (increased T/W),

less noise produced, lower fuel burn
 Take-off & Landing Performance
of the G-15

• Can take-off in 1,150 m with 100% thrust (MTOW)

• Can take-off within 2,000 m with 70-75% thrust (MTOW)

• Climb rate with max. thrust is 18.7 m.s-1

• Can take-off under OEI condition with climb rate of 10 m.s-1

• Can land in 1,500 m without spoilers or thrust reversers (just

brakes)
