The incredible difference in size between a Pratt & Whitney PW4000 fan blade (Boeing 777) and a CFM56-5A fan blade (Airbus A320)! 🤯
The PW4000 series powers the mighty Boeing 777, with fan blades nearly twice the size of those from the CFM56 engine, which powers the Airbus A320. This stark contrast highlights the massive thrust required for wide-body jets vs. single-aisle aircraft!
And yes, that’s a Coca-Cola can for scale!
