Inside Rolls Royce Factory - Building Future Jet Engines

I visited the Rolls Royce Engine factory in Derby, England in January. This vlog takes a detailed look at how Rolls Royce build the XWB engine, the exclusive engine on Airbus A350. We also take a look at the various engine test bed sites, including their latest test site bed 80 which is under construction.

In the vlog Rolls Royce explain what went wrong with their Trent 1000 engines on the Boeing 787, also their future plans for the much bigger Ultra Fan Engine.

From a boy of 17 to a 55 year old retiring, I`ve worked on / produced most RR stuff be they RR UK or RR Germany, but I also was just only 1 of 2 people making Airbus landing gear parts.. So proud to watch this Video SAM, thank you, .. Ian, now 72 years of age.

Currently you are podcasting a variety of videos which included most aspects of aviation industry instead of just cabin experiences. You are a true AVGEEK. We all appreciate your efforts.

My grandad worked here for 30 years, and on the Concorde, so proud to be able to see his work place
Edit- he passed away late January 2021, honored to have known him and to share his passions

Looks more clinically clean than a Hospital. Same factory that produced the incredible Rolls Royce Dart turboprop engine. Over 7000 were made.

I visited Rolls Royce as a schoolboy in the 1970's - it was impressive. Your visit was better, everything was so clean and a huge upgrade! You ARE a lucky boy!

They look quite small when you look at them from the terminal but they are HUGE. Stay safe Sam and everyone else

I like this video because Sam let the professionals talk instead of constantly talking about other things

Wow Sam !
I am a pilot myself and everytime I do a walk around and start the engine I feel obliged & proud considering the majestic technology & complex hardware of the engine.

Served my engineering apprenticeship at RR Derby, from 1964 to 1971. Left in 1974. It was a wonderful company to serve an aprrenticeship in. I worked in every department in several different factories. Unforgettable experience and I am proud to see them continue to thrive.

Hi Sam, I grew up in Derby, and my parents still live there - I have lived in Brisbane, Australia now for the past 35 years, and I am incredibly proud of my roots. Derby plays an incredibly pivotal role in the UK - Rolls Royce aero engines, Bombardier, Toyota, East Midlands Airport, Peak District, etc, etc. Great video and report Sam!!! Wished I was going through the factory as well...

I work for a company in the UK that supplies goods to Rolls Royce (as do many). I've never had the chance to visit the site so this was really neat to see and gave me a lot of context as to the work they do. Great video, thanks.

My Grandfather work for Rolls at their two sites at Barnoldswick in Lancshire. When he passed away both Factories turned our to show there respects to Him on way to the Cremetorium. It still impresses me still to this day over 30 years after. They really had a sence of family with those that work within the Rolls family even those that had Retired.
