Bearfoil : "Yes, just those. Keep in mind, the QF32 #2 IPT failed at a Thrust value of 72,000 POT

Wrong: It failed when at a DCL1 power setting of 96.4% of full thrust = 69,400 lb thrust.

The 900 can produce 80,000 POT. Wrong: It is rated at up to 84,000 lb (http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgMakeModel.nsf/0/09b47c27a9cfb982862573080054f9ea/$FILE/E00075EN.pdf) and has attained thrust on a test bed of 93,000 lb
