The Airbus A350 has become a staple aircraft in long-haul aviation, covering some of the longest distances in the market. The European aircraft manufacturer has continuously improved the airframe since it entered service and this trend will continue. Beginning next year, newly produced A350-900s will be equipped with upgraded Rolls-Royce Trent XWB-84 engines.

    I believe it's Tim Clark (Emirates) who complained the engines required too much maintenance downtime. You don't mention that directly.
  • @SN57ONE
    I hope inibuilds does this on their a350 too 😅
  • @Wheninflight
    I like how they upgraded the powerplants on the -900, but what does this mean for the -1000? Both being the same airframe, I would hope they both have the same upgrades.

    Airbus : Test 2500 hot cycles for it's new A350 engines from R&R even if this is maybe a 5% change of design in this already proven engine Boeing : Doesn't test at all according to it's mission profile the whole new design of it's Starliner trust system (including the propellant for it, i.e. helium) Guess which company is in deep trouble now ?
  • @delta_cosmic
    maybe this will convince emirates to order the a350-1000
  • @harstoft
    Wonder if this changes the list price of the A350?
  • @us1fedvet
    Look forward to travel aboard ITA A350 from ORD to Rome.
  • @melvyncox3361
    Good move!Airbus are streets ahead of Boeing.l should think these new engine improvements will attract customers.
  • @ThePrimeYeeter
    is this engine gonna be more powerful than the ge9x engine on the 777x?
  • @ajayk154
    So Will these upgraded RR engines have any increased power too? and if YES: would these be enough for Tim Clark/Emirates - who, I recall, complaining that the A350 was underpowered and hence Emirates decided not to buy them.
  • That's the point: Airbus and partners are constantly upgrading their products, showing in the process that they hold their engineering departments in the highest premium. Boeing lags behind in this department.
  • @jfmezei
    I wonder if this engine is required for Qantas project Sunrise in ters of achieving promised range, especially with closed Russian/Soviet airspace for foreseable future. That small imrpovement may be key.

    1:43 did he really mean to say 50 Kelvin hotter? That about 220 °C hotter.
