B777-2LR GE-90-115B-1-L Thrust Rating

Hi all,

 

Just a quick question - I know the GE-90-115B general thrust rating (115,000 lbs) but what about this derivative 115B "1L" - I cannot seem to find much on the net about the "1-L" suffix.....is this a reduced thrust variant? I noticed Etihad is flying some old Air India machines with these engines, and I am just curious about this for flight planning with the PMDG 777LR.

If i am not mistaken the -1L means it has the Takeoff Thrust Bump option enabled.

Has SP1c added the GE-90-115B engine config for B772-LR b/c last I time checked, t'was still using the GE-90-110B engines.

Thanks Bryan...

 

A quick check of Google using your comments resulted in a Flight Global article that confirms your statement - thrust bump for 115....

 

Great help!
