A day earlier, the same aircraft performed tests on the engines. Tests were performed on the engines' flight envelope, cruise speed, and handling. The flight began and ended at and lasted about four hours. On August 25, 2006, the same aircraft, A380-861 test aircraft (MSN 009), made the first flight of an Engine Alliance powered A380. The engine was ground run for the first time on an A380 on August 14, 2006, in Toulouse. The American certified the engine for commercial operation on January 4, 2006. Ground testing of the engine began in April 2004 and was first flight tested as the number two engine on GE's 747 flying testbed over Victorville, CA in December 2004. The engine powers an estimated 60% of Airbus A380 in service as reported in 2017. Emirates has traditionally been a Rolls-Royce customer.Ī380 aircraft powered by the GP7000s will have A380-86X model numbers as 6 is the code for engines. This disparity in sales was resolved in a single transaction, with ' order of 55 GP7000-powered A380-800s, comprising over one quarter of A380 sales (as of September 2007). However the GE/PW engine increased its share of the A380 engine market to the point where as of September 2007 it will power 47% of the super-jumbo fleet. The competing was named as the lead engine for the then-named A3XX in 1996 and was initially selected by almost all A380 customers. It is built around an 0.72 scale of the -110B/115B core and contains a fan and low-pressure system design.
