Pw100engine is the class of the whole family and the last two figures in PW1xx will designate the Take-off horsepower in hundreds. The aero-engine group is a series of 2,000 to 5,000 horsepower turboprops manufactured by Pratt and Whitney's Canadian Subsidiary.

Power is conveyed to the offset propeller reduction gearbox via a third shaft and connected to a 2-stage free turbine. The PW100 engines have advanced technology, fuel-efficient turboprop engines, and invented to power 30 to 70 passenger local transport, as well as efficient and corporate aircraft. The PW 118 to PW127 group has grown to cover an extensive range of power from 1800 horsepower to 2750 horsepower. The group of the turbo
