    Turboprop engines Turboprop engines are a type of aircraft powerplant that use a gas turbine to drive a propeller. The gas turbine is designed specifically for this application‚ with almost all of its output being used to drive the propeller. The engine’s exhaust gases contain little energy compared to a jet engine and play a minor role in the propulsion of the aircraft. The propeller is coupled to the turbine through a reduction gear that converts the high RPM‚ low torque output to low RPM‚

    The Jet Engine and the Revolution in Leisure Air Travel‚ 1960-1975 Peter Lyth Air transport for European tourists got off to a shaky start in the late 1920s. 1 But it was to be thirty years before leisure air travel was to appeal to anyone but the rich and adventurous. High cost‚ fear of flying and the absence of toilets in early airliners (an unfortunate combination) were the main deterrents; the unpressurized aircraft of the inter-war years were noisy‚ slow and not especially comfortable
