A RR engine takes off and lands
every 2 secs and the mission is to
increase this to 1 sec in 10 years
RR has been increasing the
efficiency of its engines by 1%
every year for 20 years
46 commodities make up a jet
engine and innovation is focused
on 6 commodities as this where
there will be greatest return on
investment (efficiency gains and
cost savings)
An operations centre receives
feedback from engines in flight to
monitor performance and to plan
and manage appropriate
maintenance
A jet engine is worth £50-60m to
RR as ‘care plans’ are sold to
companies alongside the costs of
the engine itself
