We've got two turbojet engines in the shop. Orenda 14s, which power the Sabre Jet (F-86F in USA and Sabre 6 in Canada) to just below Mach 1 in level flight.
One is in for a fuel system overhaul, and the other is being restored from the ground up.
Every component and system is checked, and today it's the ignition system.
The Orenda is also used as an industrial gas generator, where it drives a power turbine to produce about 9 thousand Hp. The test run shown here is of an industrial Orenda, used to make power for an offshore oil platform in another part of the world.
Everything went well. Tourbillon Turbines has a 100% reliability record. They have never had any failures in service.
