First 777 Disassembly

With all the CF6-80 engine activity that’s been going on around here – power assurance test runs, removal and prep for shipping – it got me thinking & snooping… I came across some information that surprised even me (and I got around back in my day). UAM administered the first 777-200 in industry history – right here at the Walnut Ridge Airport back in 2007. And get this… One GE90 engine shipped overseas for a complete overhaul and upgrade to a GE90-94B, and other engine went through disassembly. These photos tell the story better than I do.
