EP4: how do we test jet engines? 🇬🇧 | Safran

A little dynamite, a blizzard-like storm, and a predeceased seagull—an unlikely trio that helps explain why engine certification tests are no laughing matter!
Before being officially approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), a newly developed engine must undergo a series of strict tests to ensure its safety and reliability under normal and extreme operating conditions. In this 4th episode, we are presenting you a small selection of the most important tests among 32:

🧨The fan blade out test
⏱The endurance test
❄️The icing test
🙈The bird ingestion test
...
A very meticulous and strict process to ensure you have a safe flight every time!
