Abstract

An aircraft including a frame, a first turbofan engine coupled to the frame, and a second turbofan engine coupled to the frame is disclosed. The first turbofan engine includes a first turbine, a first fan coupled to the first turbine to be driven by rotation of the first turbine, and a first transmission coupled between the first turbine and the first fan to transmit rotation from the first turbine to the first fan. The second turbofan engine includes a second turbine, a second fan coupled to the second turbine to be driven by rotation of the second turbine, and a second transmission coupled between the second turbine and the second fan to transmit rotation from the second turbine to the second fan.
