Does the Boeing 777 use Rolls-Royce engines?
The Rolls-Royce Trent 800 is a high-bypass turbofan produced by Rolls-Royce plc, one of the engine options for the first-generation Boeing 777 variants, also known as 777 Classics. Rolls-Royce has been selected by South America-based LATAM Airlines to power three Boeing 787s with the engine maker’s upgraded Trent 1000 XE powerplant. This represents a small but potentially significant win in its battle to regain market share on the big twinjet.
