Engines CX uses

[LOC1GSarmed]

Ok I have tried to use the search function on this site but to no avail. So I will throw it out and maybe someone can answer:

What specific engine model designations and their thrust ratings does CX use?

I know they use Trent 500,800,700 & the RB211-524G/H-Ts. But I am referencing 2 sources and they are both a little different. Please help if you can. Thanks.

ok and to make it easier for folks answering the question:
A/C Engine Thrust rating
B747-400 RB211-524H-T 60,600#
B747-400F " "
B747-200F RB211-524D 51,110#
B777-200 TRENT 8??
B777-300 TRENT 8??
A330-300 TRENT 7??
A340-300 CFM56-5C
A340-600 TRENT 556


Thanks again!!!

For some reason I think Medwin will be the first to answer

B747-400 RB211-524H-T thrust: 59000-60000 lbs
B777-200 TRENT 877 thrust:77000 lbs
B777-300 TRENT 892 thrust:90000 - 92000 lbs
A330-300 TRENT 772 thrust:71000 lbs
A340-300 CFM56-5C thrust:34000 lbs
A340-600 TRENT 556 thrust:56000 lbs

i'm not sure about the freighters sorry mate
but they all use the RB211 as you have already stated
their thrust power won't be that different to the 744s cos they're all RB211s

hope this helps

The data I have for the RB211-524H-T says 60,600 lbs thrust. Do a search on "RB211" in the tech forum for a good rundown on the history of RB211 variants and the difference between G and H-T.

Also, 6 of the 8 744s on order have PW4056 engines (former SQ aircraft), while 3 of the 742 freighters have GE CF6-50 engines (former Air HK).

The ex SIA PW4056 engines can deliver 56,000lbs of thrust.
