The Trent 900 is the most advanced large engine in service. Powering the Airbus A380, this combination provides a significant step forward in the aviation landscape.
The Trent 900 is certified at 70k, 72k, 76k and 80k pounds of thrust. It is the only engine certified at both 70k and 72k on the Airbus A380. The higher two ratings demonstrate the growth capability embeded in the engine should further aircraft development require.
It satisfies all its key requirements, most delivering better than specification: fuel burn, noise, emissions, weight and power. The Trent 900-powered A380 is quieter than expected, meeting the QC0.5 level on Arrival, where requirement was QC1. Granted with the lowest NOx emissions on the A380, the Trent 900 demonstrates the result of the environment being the driving force behind the design.
