  • Is there a reason for that swirly thing in the centre of the engines?

  • @Skuksy Mainly is for the mechanic or ops to realize if the engine is turning, also if the engine is turning on the right direction

  • It looks like a CFM but im not sure it could be an IAE

  • @KCBOYZ1307 It´s an IAE, you can check the spinner, usually the CFM is kinda more "rounded" ;)

  • Can someone tell me what CFM and IAE are?  I had no success looking it up. Thanks.

  • @Nastafar CFM and IAE are the engines used by Airbus to power the A320 narrowbody family, CFM is the comercial name of the engine developed by GE-SNECMA, IAE stands for International Aero Engines (another joint where Rolls Royce, Pratt&Whitney, MTU and other 2)

    Best Regards

  • @oracle2world It's not the worst group of people on YouTube. There are as well persons who enjoy filming the legs of stewardesses.

  • @Skuksy And as a ramp worker there is so much noise as it is, you cant always tell just by sound which engine is running. Obviously if you get to close to a running engine you'll get sucked in. The swirly things definitely save lives.

  • Damn I love the sound of turbines. Great !!! Now I'm hypnotized.

  • Thanks. I appreciate the info.

  • it still amazes me that those things hold together...

  • @DIJITALSON - well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me! You like that hypnotic spiral? It's okay, you are amongst friends.

  • @oracle2world if folks have nothing better to do than write bullshit comments on youtube, they need to get a life!

  • If folks are enthralled by watching a jet engine spin up, they need to get a life.

  • that spinning would make a good washing machine!

  • u can use the engine center that has the swirly thingy to hypnotize people, great!
