The thrust generated by the engines of a Boeing 747 is typically around 56,000 to 63,000 pounds-force per engine. Each Boeing 747 aircraft is powered by four engines, so the total thrust produced by all engines combined is roughly 224,000 to 252,000 pounds-force.

How much thrust is produced by a Boeing 747?

This information should be available on the Boeing website or other avaition-related websites. For a quick answer, I will related my experiences from 1970's. Boeing certified the B747-200 to operate with General Electric CF6-50 engines. During take-off power, each GE engine could produce 56,000 lbs of thrust per enginer: or 224,000 lbs for a few minutes. Now, the larger B747-400 a/c have more powerful engines. Currently each engine on a Boeing 747-400 can generate a maximum of about 63,300 lbs of thrust. Accordingly, since this aircraft has four engines it can produce total thrust of about 253,000 lbs.


How much does the Boeing 747 weight in kg?

The weight of a Boeing 747 can vary depending on its model and configuration, but it typically ranges from 160,000 kg to 440,000 kg when empty.


What is the take off speed of an Boeing 747?

The takeoff speed of a Boeing 747 can vary depending on factors such as weight, runway length, and weather conditions. However, generally speaking, the takeoff speed of a Boeing 747 is around 180-200 knots (207-230 mph).


What is the volume of a Boeing 747?

The volume of a Boeing 747 varies based on its model and configuration. On average, the cabin volume of a Boeing 747 can range from approximately 280,000 to 300,000 cubic feet.


How much does a Boeing 747 weigh in kilograms?

The 747's maximum takeoff weight ranges from 735,000 pounds (333,400 kg) for the −100 variant to 970,000 lb (439,985 kg) for the −8 variant.
