Principles of turbofans and their possible cycles, based on 14-yr studies carried out by Pratt and Whitney Aircraft; comparison of jet and turbofan; results of studies with respect to 4-engine, twin-engine, and 3-engine short range transport; 4-engine 200,000-lb, 250, 000-lb, 300,000-lb, 350,000-lb transport; Fleet Air Arm (FAA) climb requirements; present equipment considerations, cargo airplane, and military applications; turbofan improves short range transport by extending range capability at no penalty in direct operating cost.
