General Electric CF34-8C5A1

General Electric CF34-8C5A1 exact turbofan variant in the CF34-8 series. EASA rates normal five-minute takeoff thrust at 60.63 kN (13,630 lbf), maximum takeoff thrust at 64.54 kN (14,510 lbf), and maximum continuous thrust at 60.84 kN (13,680 lbf). GE identifies the -8C5A1 as a higher-normal-takeoff-thrust derivative of the -8C5, records June 2006 entry into service on the Bombardier CRJ900, and lists the model among CF34-8C5 variants offered for the CRJ1000; the existing vehicle-family relationship remains separate from this propulsion identity.
