Nice bit of info there, but I got the following engine thrust rating figures for the
737-100 @14,000 lb (62 kN) 737-200 @14,500–16,400 lb (64–73 kN) from wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_737#Specifications I assume that the higher thrust rating is for the 737-200ADV. Also, a search on google for the thrust rating of the 737-100 (https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=b737-100+thrust+rating) came up with this: How much thrust does a 737 engine have? The engine chosen was the Pratt & Whitney JT8D-1 low-bypass ratio turbofan engine, delivering 14,500 lb (64 kN) thrust. So that's 2,250 lb above your suggestion. If you're talking 737-200, then the difference is 5,150 lb (I found that 17,400 lb was the thrust rating for it (google search)), although that could be the 737-200ADV, and perhaps 16,400 lb is more relevant to the 737-200 (a difference of 4,150 lb above your suggestion). ;) |
