On Tuesday morning, I’ll start a two day visit to Pratt & Whitney in Hartford, Connecticut. The first day is a day-long course on engine technology called Engines 101. The course is a primer on engine technology and the underlying fundamentals of powering aircraft, rotorcraft and spacecraft. One way to learn more about how engines work is to learn about what happens when they don’t. This week’s Movie Monday, Turbofan Jet Engine Failure Recognition, takes a close look the conditions and pilot response to troublesome engines. The training film runs 20min. Enjoy!
