A lot of older turboprops used this system as well as a small number of jets. The 787 will have this system. The B-707 had both Bleed Air and Turbochargers. We used the Turbochargers most of the time. An engine bleed line spun a turbine which then turned a fresh outside air compressor. Yeah, that was the jet exception I had noted. You were lucky you didn't have to breath the compresser section air in that thing! The JT8 was OK AFAIK There would have been some fumes, but the RB-211 is a complete piece of junk. The Brits never could build an oil tight engine.... Thats why you never change the oil in a british engine, you just change the filter every 6000 miles, with the leak and replace of the oil, oil changes are just a waste of time. True, and they actually don't change the oils in RB 211s either! That is part of the problem. As jet oil ages it gets thinner and leaks more easily, and it also gets smellier. Bertie Much like the fluid on your brain. |
