It's potentially a engine that could not only serve future A350 versions and even possibly a long-term A380 re-engine program (Emirates is likely willing to foot the development bill to build 700 _UltraFan_ derivative A380 engines), but something that could eventually become another engine choice for the Boeing 787 and possibly even Boeing 777-8/777-9 models.
I wish RR all the very best. I really do. Unfortunately they have a reputation as an unreliable employer, laying off highly skilled staff when the going gets tough.
so it's a geared turbofan .... about 6" wider diameter fan than the GE9X ..... soon airliners will need to be built with high wings instead of low ....
So does this engine represent the limit of what can be achieved in future? Has this latest engine development taken RR as far as it can go...? And what about airframe design? This engine is surely going to need stronger bodies to accommodate the sheer size of the thing...
This engine will probably not be in service until 2030. Bigger does not necessarily mean heavier. By making the fan subsonic, it means that it does not suffer the same stress. Fan housings can be lighter, thinner and less damped. It is almost conical, so mounts closer to the wing. RR's intention from day one was to make it scalable, for smaller craft.

This large diameter engine should be put on a recommisioned Vickers VC10 with two power plants instead of four.
Nice thought I must agree but not good for servicing nor pilot walk-around.

GE for life
PW1100G - the G stands for geared turbofan - fan stage is connected to LPT shaft through planetary gear.
Wish PW build new GTF at this size as another option.
Sounds like a RR ad.
… you wish!

You are just repeating yourself every few minutes. America ai rubbish.
You wish. Wait till that hidden, unrecognized and unanticipated FLAW rears its ugly head! Bwahahaha.

Boo hoo. You lost.
