inside a GE90 jet engine

Asylum had to send me to Newark to take pictures of a Boeing 777-200 for a commercial they’re working on.  After taking hundreds of pictures of the plane I had the opportunity to get into the cockpit … and the GE90 jet engine!  Did you know that each one of the blades in the engine costs $75,000?  I’m not sure which iteration of the GE90 this is but it likely outputs more than 100,000 lbs of thrust.  It was cool to see all the super delicate bits of the engine and landing gears up close, which you can see here.
