February 28, 2002 SINGAPORE-- (BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 28, 2002 Emirates, the Dubai-based international airline, today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the GE-P&W Engine Alliance for its GP7000 family of engines to power 22 firm and 10 option Airbus A380-800 aircraft. The GP7000 will reduce engine specific fuel consumption by 10 percent versus current-technology four-engined aircraft powerplants, thereby decreasing overall operating costs by a significant margin. The GP7200 offers the best combination of reliability and value, and is designed to deliver the lowest cost of ownership from service entry.
Pratt & Whitney makes it to the list of most powerful engines in the world with its popular PW4000 series, which is found on the Airbus A330, Boeing 767, and 747, was also re-engineered for the 777. The PW4000-112 offers up to 99,000 lbf of maximum thrust; however, it remains certified for 90,000 lbf. The GP7000 engine was designed and developed to compete with Rolls-Royce Trent 900, the launch engine for the superjumbo Airbus A380. The purpose of the alliance was to gain the best of both worlds and create an ultra-fuel-efficient engine in the widebody category.

The Rolls-Royce Trent 900 is a high-bypass turbofan produced by Rolls-Royce plc to power the Airbus A380, competing with the Engine Alliance GP7000 . Initially proposed for the Boeing 747-500/600X in July 1996, this first application was later abandoned but it was offered for the A3XX , launched as the A380 in December 2000. GP7000 Core Test a Key Milestone Leading To Final Engine Design FARNBOROUGH - The GE-P&W Engine Alliance has recently completed a highly successful development test on a nine-stage, 3D aero engine core, setting the stage for detailed design of the full engine next year.
