 ...record $931 million
(£530 million), up 34 per cent on the previous year. GE
has a broad-based, stable spectrum of engines in pro
duction, split more or less equally between six commer
cial units (CF6-6, CF6-45, CF6-50, CF700, CJ610 and
CT58) and seven military units (F103, J79, J85, T58, T64,
T700 and TF34). Backing these up as potential future
programmes is a batch of new engines: the comm...

 ...A F100. In this respect, the
F10IX could emerge as even more important to GE than
the F404. To date GE has built more than 82,000 aircraft
engines which have logged over 135 million flying hours.

 ... has been known for some time that Boeing
has been studying both range- and capacity-stretched
versions of the aircraft (as well as cutback variants). Some
airlines are thus tending to look at the CF6-50-powered
version of the essentially standard 747 as a precursor of
better things to come in terms of payload, range and per-
seat operating economy.
This is not to say that the unrated "stand...

$1,514 million in 1972 and accounted for 13 per cent of
the company's total sales and five per cent of earnings.
The increasing output of commercial aircraft engines
(primarily the CF6) only partially offsets the downward
trend in defence-related products, and 1972 was the fifth
successive year that aerospace sales had declined. The
