However, it said that sustained growth since 2009 had led to more people being exposed to jet noise around several airports.

Engine handling and low jet noise are facilitated by the use of a variable area final nozzle, to rematch the fan.

The lower exhaust speed also gives much lower jet noise.

I would not have been surprised if we'd got out and the tyres had been replaced by pitons, and the engine had turned into a jet turbine.

The rotor of a helicopter may, like a propeller, be powered by a variety of methods such as an internal-combustion engine or jet turbine.

Unit 3 was added in 1957 and the jet turbine was added in 1969.

Jet turbines emit smoke if they undergo a compressor stall.

But when his colleagues surprised him with the gift of being a passenger in a military jet flight, he felt he couldn't say no.

It also makes military jet engines and turbo-prop and helicopter engines as well as propulsion systems for commercial and military ships.

A police drone had to be swiftly manoeuvred to avoid a mid-air collision with a military jet flying at nearly 520mph when it entered the plane's flight path.

The rising demand for military jet engines and the constant supply made it necessary to develop superalloys with a lower rhenium content.

Solo military jet demos, also known as tactical demo, feature one aircraft, usually a strike fighter or an advanced trainer.

Tonight we are shown how to build the most powerful jet engine in the world.

It's like the difference between cleaning your patio with a gentle stream versus a powerful jet.

When they blasted lizards with a powerful jet of air, those with larger toe pads and smaller hind legs clung to the branches.

This led to a very powerful jet of propane to rush out.

Regional jet traffic remained strong last month.

In its primary role it serves as a regional jet, short-haul airliner or regional airliner.

The aircraft was initially expected to be the first regional jet aircraft to adopt carbon fiber composite materials for its airframe on a significant scale.

Among some of these categories included among the short-haul civilian passenger jets are both longer and shorter ranged narrow-body jet and regional jet types.

It's hard to describe the noise accurately - it's like a supersonic jet on take-off topped with a strange hissing note.

In tests the material also shattered power drills and resisted water jet cutters.

Placing glasses at the sides should lower their chances of getting broken, as the water jet isn't so strong there.

The directional water jet system allows users to exercise at various intensities while an underwater video provides instant analysis of leg strains and injuries.

Propulsion by water jet, again one in each hull, gives a low acoustic signature.

It consists of an emptied egg, positioned over the water jet from a fountain, which starts turning without falling.

There have been four serious accidents involving 777s in the 20 years since the wide-body jet came into service.

One would fit the luggage holds of wide-body jets and another the luggage holds of narrow-body jets.

About 76 percent of these flights are operated with wide-body jets.

These amenities include: airports (large international airports to handle wide-body jets), roads, sewage treatment plants, landfills, electricity and telephones.

Proposed amenities resembled those installed on earlier airliners, particularly 1970s wide-body jets, which largely gave way to regular seats for more passenger capacity.
