Jet engines are relatively simple in their basic design, but advancements in gas turbine engine technology have mostly done away with the cool-looking bucket-type reverse thrust systems. These ...
Since a turbine engine generates force through rotation, you would expect simply spinning it the other way would create the reverse thrust a jet needs to slow down.
A turbofan engine is an engineering feat. Here's what to know about how a jet engine works, from the fan in the front to the hot inner core.
To be crystal-clear (if this is possible regarding a Garage 54 project): the Russians made a four-stroke, four-cylinder Soviet-built engine to spin in reverse. Counterclockwise. Right over left.

How Does the Engine of a Fighter Jet Work?

The modern fighter jet is defined by its engine, which accelerates a tremendous volume of air rearward that it can propel an aircraft weighing as much as 70,000 pounds at supersonic speeds. While ...
Airbus is aiming to introduce an engine control unit software modification for CFM International CFM56 powerplants, to reduce the safety risk if A320 pilots attempt a go-around after activating ...
