Reexamination of State of art using Rolls Royce Tyne engine and Allison T-61 data while turbofan powerplant data are based upon Pratt-Whitney J-57 fans and General Electric aft fan versions of J-79; two cost methods selected are 1960 Air Transport Assn direct operating cost and Rand costing method; it is found that selection cannot be made on basis of cost alone, but on engine availability, operating constraints encountered and preferences of people involved.
