Yes and no. The NATO/USAFE E3Bs should have TF33-PW-100 engines
producing 21000 lbs thrust(1), not JT3D engines which produce 18000 lbs
thrust. The JT3D engine is used on the 707-320B (2) which is the basis
of the E3B. An RAF, FAF or RSAF E3B should be using CFM56 turbofans
producing 24000 lbs t
The E3B engines are currently defined as having a thrust of 18000 Lbs. A
google search indicates that the per engine thrust should be 21000 Lbs.
If this is verified as being true, the attached patch should correct the
associated E3B/Engines/JT3D.xml file.
