The new engine is designed to stay on wing 30% longer, while using 30% fewer parts, greatly reducing maintenance. The GE90 was the first commercial engine with composite fan blades, enabling unprecedented bypass ratios for better fuel efficiency and lower emissions. Compressor : The core is the heart of the turbofan.
