1976 Aerospace Chester Fitted Tfe731 Turbofan
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, taken in May 1976 at Chester, we see a British Aerospace 125-700 being fitted with a new TFE731-3-1H turbofan engine. The British Aerospace 125-700, also known as the BAe 125-700, is a versatile business jet that first entered service in 1967. This particular model, with the registration G-BXNB, was one of many that underwent engine upgrades throughout its long and successful service life. The TFE731-3-1H engine, manufactured by Rolls-Royce, was a significant improvement over the original engines used on the BAe 125-700. This advanced turbofan engine offered increased thrust, improved fuel efficiency, and reduced noise levels, making it a popular choice for operators seeking to enhance the performance and capabilities of their aircraft. The installation of the new engine was a complex process that required precision and expertise. In this image, we see the engine being carefully lifted into position by a crane, with a team of engineers and technicians standing by to ensure a smooth and successful installation. The engine's sleek design and advanced technology are on full display, making it clear that this was no ordinary engine upgrade. This photograph captures an important moment in the history of business aviation, as the BAe 125-700 was one of the most successful business jets of its time, and the TFE731-3-1H engine became a cornerstone of its continued success. The fusion of British engineering excellence and American turbofan technology resulted in a powerful and efficient engine that set new standards for business aviation.
