What is the GTF advantage?
With cost and revenue benefits from lower fuel consumption, higher payload and longer range, the GTF Advantage engine delivers additional aircraft capability. The engine will deliver 4-8% more takeoff thrust, enabling higher payload and longer range, unlocking new destinations for airlines. The Pratt & Whitney GTF engine is capable of generating up to 33,000 lbfs of thrust. Both the CFM LEAP and the Pratt & Whitney GTF engines are high-bypass engines, making them much more fuel efficient than their predecessors. However, the latter has a higher bypass ratio of 13:1, compared to the CFM LEAP’s 11:1.
