Abstract
The advanced technology concepts offered by the CF6 over previous-generation gas turbine engines in regard to performance, operational characteristics, environmental considerations, dispatch reliability and utilization, and heavy maintenance have been incorporated to improve overall airplane operational effectiveness. The success of these concepts is being evidenced in the flight operation of the DC-10 airplane.
