ART EVERY DAY NUMBER 31 / Drawing / modern jet airliner, 1972
Art Every Day Number 31 MODERN JET AIRLINER, 1972 shows an interpretation of what was proudly described at the time as … a Modern Jet that can speed 111 passengers across the country in 5.5 hours…In an airplane, people can reach any spot on earth in a matter of hours or days… with each engine delivering over 4,000 horsepower… (from The World Book Encycolpedia, 1972 Edition)
Compare that to today’s jets, where a single GE90-115B engine puts out over 110,000 horsepower.
