What is the normal CF34 thrust rating?

• A. 12,670 lbs
• B. 13,000 lbs
• C. 12,000 lbs
• D. 11,500 lbs

Answer: (A)

Normal thrust rating is the baseline takeoff power the engine is expected to produce during standard operations. It’s the value used for performance data and flight planning, not the maximum or military power. For the CF34 engines used on GoJet’s regional jets, the standard takeoff thrust is 12,670 pounds per engine. This figure is the one you’ll see in manuals and performance charts for routine takeoffs and climbs. The other numbers don’t represent the normal rating used in everyday operations; they may reflect different variants or non-normal power settings.
