Boeing 777 Engines: GE90 vs GE9X Explained
The GE90 made the Boeing 777 famous for enormous engines. The 777X takes the idea further with the GE9X—a larger fan, fewer composite blades and a much more efficient core.

The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is unusual because airlines could choose between two very different engine families. Here is how the GEnx-1B and Trent 1000 differ—and how Boeing designed the aircraft to work with both

The Boeing 737 MAX replaced the CFM56-7B with a larger, more advanced LEAP-1B. That change affected far more than fuel efficiency—it changed how the engine, nacelle, wing and aircraft aerodynamics had to work together.
