A day at work

[benhasajeep28]

D3300 and 18-55 kit and 55-200kit lenses. A day at work for me. This is a 777-200ER. We are changing the nose cowl due to some wear / damage inside the inlet. For scale in the first picture the guy on the work stand is 6'2" tall and is standing on the 7th step of an 8' stand. This is a Rolls Royce Trent 800 powerplant with 90,000# thrust rating. It is a fully computer controlled motor, only electrical wires to the cockpit. The computer is under the large black cover with all the wiring going to it. Well over $1milion for the computer alone. The third picture the inlet is so large it has to be turned flat for shipping. Still needs a wide load permit as the crate it comes in is almost 13' wide. Picture 4 is the Fan, it is 110" from blade tip to the blade tip across from it. Picture 5 is the WHITE nose cowl going on. Of note it used to be Maroon. We sold it as a spare. They painted it white. We bought it back becuase our other spares were in use or in repairs. I have been told once we get one back. We are going to remove the white one and sell it back to them as spares?????
