ATF3 Engine CrossSection & Gas Path

The Photo below is the Garrett Falcon Jet F20C Flying Test Bed.

This is a test flight of the Garrett TFE1042, First Afterburner Flight.

I posted this picture on the ATF3 Online Museum only because the #2 “Right Pusher Engine” is an ATF3-6A SN #21 (3rd ATF3 development engine assembled in the Phoenix Development Assembly Shop by Mechanics Avery Gauger and Michael McCoy.

Engine #21 was later converted to a Certified ATF3-6A-3C configuration rated at 5440 LbFn @ 59°F OAT, to be used as a pusher engine for flight test.

I believe that the Garrett/AlliedSignal TFE1042 engine is the most powerful engine ever mounted on or flight tested on an AMD Dassault Falcon Jet F20 airframe.

And lets face it, It’s a really Great Shot!
