Description: The GE90 engine was developed by General Electric to power a new generation of wide-body aircraft such as Boeing 777 and was ultimately adopted by commercial aircraft with a capacity of 100 seats/passengers or more. The first GE90 engine was certified at 84,700-lb of thrust. Potential growth has make possible to achieve 127,900-lb of thrust by the GE90-115B model becoming the world's most powerful commercial aviation engine.

The development program for the GE90 engine is being backed by Snecma (France), FiatAvio (Italy) and IHI (Japan) as well as General Electric Aircraft Engines (USA).

As of May 2005, the GE90-115B engine family had been selected to power the Boeing 777-300ER (2004), the Boeing 777-200LR Worldliner (2006) and the Boeing 777 Freighter airplane scheduled to enter service in 2008.

The GE90-110B1L is a re-rated version of the GE90-115BL 115,000-lb of thrust engine used on the Boeing 777-300ER jetliner. The GE90-110B1L will power the Boeing 777 Freighter.

On 29 December 2005, Avion Group of Iceland placed an order for four Boeing 777 Freighters which were expected to be operated by Avion's subsidiary Air Atlanta Icelandic. Avion selected General Electric's GE90-115B1 engines to power its newest 777s. The first aircraft was scheduled for delivery in February 2009.
