For more than a century, three names have stood at the forefront of aviation: Rolls-Royce, General Electric, and Pratt & Whitney. Their rivalry is more than corporate competition-it is a story of innovation, ambition, and the technological leaps that reshaped the modern world. From Frank Whittle's pioneering concepts to the cutting-edge turbofans of today, Rolls-Royce vs. GE vs. Pratt & Whitney: The Jet Engine charts the rise of jet propulsion across commercial and military aviation. The book reveals how breakthroughs like the RB211, the GE90, and the geared turbofan transformed air travel, while also examining the failures, financial crises, and high-stakes gambles that nearly toppled even the most powerful players. It is a history of engineers and executives, of nations and airlines, and of machines that pushed the boundaries of speed, safety, and efficiency. Told with clarity and depth, this is the definitive account of the "jet engine wars" that have powered humanity into the skies-and continue to define the future of flight.
