Engines on the -250 model are the same as on the -500. IE: RB.211-524B402.
The RB.211-524B402 can also be installed on the -200's.

However, -524B402 engines can be installed, but...the number two position requires mods to the titanium ring.
When installing the -524B4 in the No. 2 position no modification to the titanium ring (?) is required. However, the the "inlet adapter cone" of the S-Duct requires modification.
Is that an ex-BA example in the near background that i see ?
s/n 193N-1182 a -200F, ex-BA (G-BGBC), American International and Kitty Hawk (N107CK).
Are the -100's, -200's, or 250's viable for service anymore or is engine support dead except for the -500's now?
Rolls Royce still maintains the RB.211-524's that power the -200's, -250's and -500's.
I'm wondering if the DL -250's are viable then. Worth cutting a door in them for freight?
Only 5 of the 6 -250's still exist. If you have about 14 million that you are not using I am sure Marshall will be happy to speak to you about adding the cargo door.
