Default interesting photos of turbine (jet engine) guts

I am doing work for one of this guy's other companies (vintage F1/Indy car engines) and found some cool photos of smaller jet turbines.

Avon Aero Online -- www.avonaero.com

Photos from a Garrett/Honeywell turbine:

Got turbine wheel(s)? hehe


How's this for a compressor housing...

All it needs is a rudder and a little chair to sit on there in the operator's booth.

That, and a PTO shaft to drive the margarita blender.
