GE90-115B inside and out. 

Airline pilot here. A big thank you for everything you do! ❤

Im a fueler and you are right, there's nothing more humbling than to stand in front of these engines. To think these can make over 100,000 hp each, is simply mind boggling. Thank you for showing it to us and also kudos to you who fixes them, and to the engineers that designed them and to the people that built them. Takes truly brute force to propel over 600,000 pounds of plane to 600 mph for thousands of miles. Very durable and they don't smoke at all.

Don't worry about the video being too long. Take your time and explain everything nice and slow that is easy to catch. Its interesting to learn. Your doing a great job. Keep up the good work.

What a privilege to be able to watch an engine inspection with explanation on RU-vid 💪 thanks man, love your channel

Thank you so much for this video. I actually work for GE Aerospace, building the GE 90 at the Durham Engine Facility and I probably had a hand in building this particular engine. It's awesome to see someone appreciate the hard work we put into these beasts. Great job explaining everything as well. It's great to see the finished product hanging on wing compared to what we normally see after assembly. Much appreciated.

Airline passenger here, thank you for all your skilled work you do to keep us safe.

This is the coolest video I'll watch all day. I thank you all for keeping these birds flying safe in the skies. Can't wait to see more content. Cheers.

Excellent video. Well filmed and explained. During the last 5 years of my career I worked solely on these aircraft/engines and as you said they are so reliable and a dream to work on. In fact I was working on the freighter version and they could be away from base for anything up to a week having flown multiple sectors and many many hours and arrive back with nil defects and none while it was away either. Brilliant aircraft.

This was the fastest nine minute video I ever watched. I'm a gear head and this was so interesting I wished it was an hour long. I recognize the detail and pride displayed in the manufacturing of this beast. I'd really like to see one in person. In addition, you explanation was spot on, thanks.

I’m glad we have people like you that work for us!

I remember watching GE test this engine on their 747 in Mojave. On one of the runups on the hammerhead it caused a boulder to roll away.

Been a commercial aircraft mechanic for over 35yrs and the triple 7 is just amazing. The diameter of the engine cowling is the same diameter as several commercial aircraft fuselages! Giant! I had the pleasure of standing inside the engine cowl years ago and I couldn't even touch the upper intake cowling!

It’s too bad you skilled technicians are disrespected by management and look at you as a liability to the company’s bottom line and don’t pay you for what you are worth

That is great. Just started watching but i love learning about those things as an avgeek, near future flight attendant and possibly pilot a bit later on

I really love your video as much as you can imagine! It’s really awesome. Thanks for your time and dedication in the making of this 😄

That was amazing! Thank you so much for showing of all this ! Flight maintenance is sadly often overlooked but those kinds of videos are the ones that make me love aeronautical engineering! I would love to watch a longer video about all of that, maybe going more in detail (perhaps with some schematics if you're allowed to show us that) ! Thanks once more for the amazing work !

This is GOLD! I've never seen a GE90 So up close and explained in proper detail! Hope to have more videos!

I'm an automotive technician I work on ford 6.7 powerstrokes. I literally just watched all your videos. Very amazing engines. Maybe I should do a career change. You just gained a new sub! Keep up the awesome work.

The G90-115B is a superlative aviation engine. This presentation was pithy, as well as insightful. Massive respect to all the designers and production engineering personnel!

Merci pour cette visite très intéressante. Un grand respect aux ingénieurs et techniciens qui ont conçu et entretiennent ce magnifique moteur. Le 777 est un super avion ! ❤️From France 🇨🇵

Thank you so much for this @StigAviation . Huge engines like this 115B and the Trent 900 are the reason I want to study aerospace engineering or aircraft maintenance. I would love to go into aerospace but I can't due to lack of funds.I've been trying for 10 years now, since I got out of high school.Your videos are among the things that keep my flames of passion burning. KEEP IT UP SIR!!!.

I am an retired AF jet engine technician. Never got to work on GE engines. I was all Pratt engines. I was on the C-17 for 13 years, and they have pretty much the same components under the doors. The GE 90 is an amazing engine to say the least. I work at an airport now and I always stress to other do NOT drive behind a running jet engine!. Good job on video!

The first time I ever boarded a 777-300 as a passenger, my seat was right next to the engine. I opened the shade and looked out the window and there was a man standing in front of it, as well as a cargo van. Both items looked like they could easily fit inside of the engine. I was floored as to the massive size of that beast. But then, you look around the aircraft and realize just how huge the airframe is and that one of those engines has to be able to power this beast by itself, it's completely proportional to the aircraft. Ever since that experience, I have been a huge 777 and GE90 fan.

I always wanted to continue my aircraft technician career after the US Air Force, but I moved on to a different career. I've always been fascinated by airplanes and working on F-15E's for 10 years was the highlight of my life. Thanks for this video!

Amazing video that have a lot of informations in it, i am starting my university journey in aerospace engineering so this is a good start to look at

Amazing wonder engineering Marvel that flies us .I am grateful to this engine,it's makers and technicians who take care of them.Thanks for showing this.

You’re so good in explaining and showing things so clear, that’s for those amazing efforts you put to show the world your passion and enlightening us all..Love from Australia 🇦🇺

When I worked for Ford I wanted to get into aviation (early ‘70’s) but I was told I couldn’t compete with Vets returning from Vietnam so I didn’t peruse my dream… pilot or mechanic. Thank you for your time & expertise Sir.

A man who loves his job! Not only is airliner science amazing, but your knowledge of their systems is commendable!

What a piece of masterpiece. When I was studying fluid mechanics as a mechanical engineering undergraduate student, I came across your video. I will hopefully either be an engineer designing these machines or a pilot flying them. Thank you a lot for enlargening my vision, being a guide and reminding me how great decision it was to choose mechanical engineering.

Thank you so much. I travel very frequently on B777 clocking 11000 miles each way. I put my complete faith in these engines. Absolute workhorses. It’s nice to understand how they work. Keep us safe and aloft for 13 hours nonstop.

You worked very hard on this video Stig. Thank you so much for posting. I’m certainly going to watch this over and over again before I even begin to ask you any questions about it. Absolutely fascinating. Thank you for putting the effort into making this video and for sharing it with us. GE90-115b. Fantastic engine 🥰 iJeff348

This was my first video I’ve watched of yours. It’s so hard to really grasp the size of that engine and the word MASSIVE even seems small. I’m so used to to looking at my car’s engine that I didn’t realize just how much is underneath that bad boy. I always fly 737s. I’ve unfortunately never gone overseas but I’m glad there are people that know how to service these engines and take pride in their work. It’s because of people like you that always keeps are skies safe.

About to bid 777F at my airline. Been on the 767 for 8 years. 747 before that. The GE-90 is a massive work of art. So much respect for the techs that keep them running safely on ETOPS flights.

thank you for keeping us safe.. I fly a lot on 777s across the pacific ocean, super poweful/reliable engines and well maintained

I can't say thank you enough for doing your videos. I'm a pilot that never made it to the airlines and always have a ton of questions how about the big iron. Super awesome to have some of these questions getting answered. Amazing. Thank you for having such an upbeat personality..

amazing machines running 24/7 flawlessly pretty incredible

Recently retired MIA 777 Captain. Thank you for this excellent video, and thank you for your diligent work.

You definitely love your craft. Keep wrenching and keeping us safe in the back and the cockpit. Always fun to have you guys up front for a conversation.

Awesome walk through 💪🏻

Thank you for your PASSION, it’s great to learn from everyone’s trade skills.

This is turely a nice quick tour and components explanation, looking forward to your next video. I used to work on the GEnx and CF-6 series, they're good design engine as well.

Wow, amazing, my soul delights in your channel,my mind is overcome by human knowledge,gracias.

Man that’s so cool. Thanks for sharing. My best friend was a turbine engine mechanic in the air force and always tried explaining things to me but it’s much easier to understand when you can see it. 👍🏻

Im a supply Technician. For more than 27 years... when we taking care of all Aircraft Parts. Up to now... i cant compare my self as the Maintenance Technician...they are the True Legend 🏆🏅 .. You wouldn't believe the intricacies of the tools a maintenance technician uses Imagine they are fixing something that was invented....you know drive how to drive a car...but can you make something like it? This is the case with the maintenance technicians who make these planes fly..as for the pilot, he is someone who performs a job similar to driving... With all due respect to the pilots and to all aviation workers... But from the many years of experience, the technician is the backbone of the world of aviation Salute 🫡 my friends Thank you so much for Sharing this episode.... we value the efforts you are doing 👌🏻 👍🏻💯 Greetings from Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 and

It's obvious that you love your job. It's really good to see AMTs which have a passion for the trade, rather than treating it as just another job. I'm at 29 years as an aircraft mechanic. 23 years USAF, and 6 as an AMT. I absolutely love my job. The 777F is one of my favorites to work on. MD-11 is my first.

Outstanding video, good narration, GE has great reliability. Aircraft techs are the unsung heroes of the industry, keep up the good work.

Its 2am, i cant sleep and YT sent me here. But at least now i can service a GE90-115B without hesitation next time my flight is delayed. Thank you sir!

Excellent presentation Stig. It's very obvious that you take great pride in your job. Keep up the good work! Long live the Ge90115-b1

Amazing video pal 🤜🤛😁✈️ As an aviation enthusiast myself, I know quite a lot about aircraft and aircraft engines, but I've learned quite a few new things about the incredible GE90 today, through watching your amazing video, I really appreciate your videos, thank you so much for making them ☺️ Quick question for you, If an aircraft happens to be missing her APU for whatever reason, how do they start the engines and what provides the air for the starters in that case? I know that a ground power unit provides power to run things like the avionics, Lights, IFE etc... But wondered how the engine starters get the air they need to spin up the engines 😉

My brother in law is a jet mechanic for AA in Tulsa. Nice video work and perfect audio. Amazing piece of engineering!

I could watch this kind of video for long periods of time. Don't ever feel the need to rush.

GE employee here who helps manufacture these bad boys. Cool to see how you (our customer) deals with them on the daily basis!

Thank you so much for this awesome video. As for me, a licensed aircraft mech but aren't lucky to be part of any MRO team, I can clearly see and learn something even if we can't work with it on actual basis. Regards from Philippines! ❤️✈️

Excellent description of this engine! You did an excellent job showing and describing this engineering wonder! You gotta make long-term videos about these engines!

Thank you. Very interesting to me. I’ve worked on cars to big trucks and equipment for 39 years but know almost nothing about aviation

In my opinion, this engine and others like it are the epitome of engineering. So many components working exactly like they are supposed to with tight tolerances for thousands of hours in the worst conditions. Just amazing!

Stig I love all your videos so great to watch what you guys do to keep us all safe . You do a fantastic job . Keep up the great work .

What a great job explaining something we passengers would never see. Excellent video and explanation.

Beautiful! Just beautiful and well explained! Thank you.

Appreciated your service in fellow human safety....God bless You 🙏🙏

O yes, a lot of passangers even do not know about Maintenance staff and what they do, but you telling them that we exist, (above 40 years aviation experience) good job.

thank you for showing us around all the inner workings.

That's a great video 👍 It's vanished from ur Instagram status but u took a wise step & uploaded here.

Utterly incredible! Love the "long" videos Thank you for sharing

Please keep them coming, I'm learning a lot from you guys 🙏🏾

So cool. I work on IDG’s all day but I’ve never seen it on an aircraft. I’m based in Miami and I work at a place called summit. All I do is disassembling inspect and reassemble and test IDG’s all day.

Incredible, the stigster shows us a masterpiece of human endeavor.

Just INSANE engineering wow 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥

Very good video, thanks. I'm allways fascinated by these engines when I fly on B777 300ER towards Caribbean. A master piece of engineering and a huge power.

I worked on c-17s in the Air Force as a 7level technician (engines was my shred) but I was also a 5 level crew chief. Everything you explained was true. EXCEPT those automatic buttons for the TR doors and accessory doors. We had to get stands and hydraulic hand pumps for the TR door’s because the Air Force thought it would be funny to watch us use those pumps all while telling us to hurry because said jet was to block out soon. So… lol.

Thanks for the quick and rather detail take of this beauty. Love the very well design of this beast. Compare to the Trent 800 . This is a walk in the park to work with. Hope you show the folks how this beast suck up water on a very wet day 😂.

Amazing and beautiful🤙🌅✈️

Brilliant insight into these fascinating works of art, excellent commentary Thank you Stig.

Thank you for taking the time to produce these informative videos, I have loved aircraft since I was young. I subscribe to plane and pilot magazine even though I'm a fifty year old truck driver now.

Super excellent & super wonderful mechanical & electrical engineering technology which produces GE 90 engines #❤️❤️ 👍🇵🇰

One of the best things I've seen on RU-vid... thank you!

That was so interesting to see what is hidden beneath those cowlings. Keep those videos coming.

Absolutely fantastic video! Thank you for the opportunity to see inside.

Beautiful engine that can produce 110,000 lbs of thrust all from a programable cannon plug pin. Good job in describing the engine.

Excellent video. Thanks 👍 Brother. Good bless you.

Well done dude, I regularly fly AA134 to Heathrow-LAX. Much appreciated 👏

This was a great tour of the engine. Thank you!

Amazing thanks for the info that engine is complex and huge thanks for keeping them maintain

My grandpa worked on plane engines for the Canadian Armed forces and later on for airports. What a fascinating career.

Thanks for your service

Thank you so much ! I really enjoyed this “tour” ! I bet you are an instructor too. Very nice didactics !!! Take care .

Thank you for your service! 🙏 With your skills, we get to fly in this beast's safe belly.

When I was driving OTR long haul on I-5 between Seattle and Portland I’d see special semi - trailer combinations hauling those GE 90’s to Everett. They are big. A lot of overpasses on I-5 in Washington state where built in the late 50’s when they originally built the interstate system. Those engines would barely fit under them. They had convoy vehicles with special strike antennas in front of the semi’s. As for being a OTR truck driver hauling Jet engines is a good gig , that’s all these guys do is haul Jet engines.

You definitely know your shit! Makes me feel good people like you are working on planes we fly on! Thanks! ✈️

The aircraft doesn’t need reversers to stop, however pilots are taught to use the brakes as a last option to slow the plane. First option is to land at or just above stall speed, this bleeds off extra speed while the aircraft is still airborne. Second option upon touchdown, the main gear will touch the runway first while the nose gear is still aloft. The pilot can pull back on the elevators and bleed off airspeed, pilots are taught to keep the nose gear aloft as long as they can, this adds drag without applying brakes. Lastly, reversers can be used. Which creates drag by forcing air forwards instead of rearward. Edit: technically there’s an additional option for pilots, this is to make sure the aircraft not only touches down at stall speed, but to do so at the very beginning of the runway. This gives the aircraft plenty of room to simply roll to burn off more airspeed after all other (non brakes) braking methods are exhausted. 👍🏾

Mesmerising watching this clip. Yes; it might be brief and not a load of techno babble, (thankfully), this was amazing to watch, learn and understand in simple terms, the basics of these leviathan engineering marvels. The complexity of the mechanics, is in stark contrast to how Frank Whittles invented Jet Engine, actually works, e.g. Suck, Squeeze, Burn & Blow. Made it the full screen and could almost believe I was there, watching and listening as to how the varioius components work on such a marvel of engineering. Thanks so much for posting this..

This is such an awesome overview! I consider myself fairly knowledgeable and I learned so much from this, so thanks.

Amazing video. Thanks for sharing.

What a good and informative video.

I was very impressed by your understanding and respect for this technology. Everyone in aviation should have this. Doesn't it drive you crazy to see what's happening at Boeing? You would be the right CEO at Boeing.

Brother, what a fantastic channel. Only just found you now, so candid and real. Brilliant mate 🙌🏼

Definitely it is incredible work! Thanks for making flight possible!😊

I remember loading and unloading cargo and baggage from the PIA B 777 300 at Heathrow and I used to walk around these engines when had downtime from hold 5 . 😊 AP BID AP BHW GE 90 - 115B AP BHV

Thank you for the info about this fascinating engine. Now that you are making full screen RU-vid videos I hope you will consider making another full screen video about this huge engine. And longer videos are welcome, the content certainly justifies it.
