Since the thread I've started about the same question in the italian forum got locked with no explanation, I'll post my doubt here hoping it's not against any Non-Disclosure Agreement or any FBI secret :confused:.
I know that usually aircraft engines are numbered with 1, 2, 3, 4... starting from the outer left one. My question was: are there manufacturers, airlines, countries, god knows what, that name it in a different way? Maybe swapped, or with any different criteria.
I'm asking because I've always read about this numbering with the word "generally" being written next to it, and I wanted to make it more "sure" in my mind :) Also, I've never read anything about this topic on the doc4444 & co.
