    Description

    Pricing is PER Blade. Each Individual Blade. This is a great piece of history to add to your collection.  This is a Turbine Engine Blade from the compressor section of a Pratt & Whitney TF30 engine that was used in the
    F-14 Tomcat and F-111 Ardvark.  It's your chance to own a piece from the F-14 Tomcat aircraft made famous by the movie TOPGUN.  While this engine worked well in the F-111, it was not ideal for the F-14.  This model was prone to compressor stalls at high AOA when throttle were jockied, that along with the design of the aircraft could produce the flat spins that were seen in the movie.  Becuase of that dangerous condition, the engine was eventually replaced with a GE F110.
