In the Aerofly FS 2 there are a handful of different engines to propel an aircraft. There are engines that drive [[propeller|propellers]] through a driveshaft and there are jet-engines that directly create a thrust. | In the Aerofly FS 2 there are a handful of different engines to propel an aircraft.

Jet stream engines compress air, mix it with fuel, burn it in a combustion chamber and accelerate the hot gases through turbine blades. There are numerous ways to create such an engine and each has their own characteristics. In the Aerofly FS 2 the following jet stream engines are implemented: | Jet stream engines compress air, mix it with fuel, burn it in a combustion chamber and accelerate the hot gases through turbine blades.
