LM1600 Test Run

Starting and testing a GE LM1600, the industrial version of the GE F404, which is used in the F-18 and F/A-18, among others. This ground runner produces about 20 thousand Hp in the form of a stream of high speed pressurized gas, which is used to turn a power turbine, which then does mechanical work. For more information, have a look at my videos about power turbines.
