Boeing 737? Most specifically, the Pratt and Whitney JT8D-1?

 

[Mart61]

Oooh. Close but no cigar! JT8 is a bit too old...

I am going to guess the GE-90. Don't know much about them but the curve on the blades seems to match.

Methinks the Rolls Royce GP-7200 turbofans of the Airbus A-380 (an image of mine here).
Correction: The GP-7200 is by GE P&W - not RR (The RR Trent 900 is also available for the A-380)

Well corrected but, alas, your guess is still wrong... :biggrin:

Smaller eh? Hmmm, what about the GE CFM-56 then? (a Snecma-GE effort)

Too many fan blades for a 7B...
