Developments made in stage 2 aircraft since 1989 are reviewed. In brief, the events are as follows: the first stage 2 aircraft to be reengined with a stage 3 Rolls-Royce Tay has flown; the first order for stage 3 Tay engines to replace stage 2 Pratt and Whitney JT8Ds in the Boeing 727 has been secured; Europe has decided on its future policy in the phase out of the stage 2 fleet; airports around the world have progressively tightened their stranglehold in stage 2 operations; it has become clear that simple hushkits are only marginal stop gap methods of hiding from tommorrow's environmental problems; concern about atmospheric pollution has cast another shadow over the old engines now powering the stage 2 fleet; Rolls-Royce is re-examined the development of a large Tay engine directed at the re-engining market.
