Untitled[edit]

I note that the introduction states that the "PW100 engine family is a series of 2,000 to 5,000 horsepower (1,500 to 3,700 kW) turboprops" but the list of engines that follow range from 1892 to 3058 eshp (1411 to 2281 kW). Would it be more accurate if the range was 2000 to 3000 hp (1400 to 2300 kW)? Also, I note that PW150 redirects here, but the PW150 engine is not listed.

The article on the Bombardier Q400 states that the PW150 engine is capable of 5,000 horsepower at takeoff. 86.3.108.41 (talk) 02:34, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just added the word aero at the beginning of the article, so that people know what kind of engine we are talking about.....(Prudentia (talk)) 4th Aug 2012 —Preceding undated comment added 11:43, 4 August 2011 (UTC).[reply]

(2)[edit]

What does the "(2)" mean in the Specifications section? Kendall-K1 (talk) 02:58, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It was an incorrect citation style added here, the next edit was to add (2) after the ATR manual. Ideally we need just one source cited at the top of the section (the |ref parameter) then remove these surplus '2s' as they are confusing.

HP vs LP[edit]

I presume these terms denote high pressure and low pressure respectively but the article should have some explanation or links to articles that do. Hooperbloob (talk) 16:23, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Next Generation Regional Turboprop[edit]

There is nothing in the cited source to suggest that this new engine is a replacement for the PW100. In fact the source suggests this is an additional class of engines, and at 4,500-7,000 shp it serves a different market from the PW100. So I'm going to move this section over to Pratt & Whitney Canada unless someone can find a source that says this new engine is somehow related to the subject of this article.

Dud references[edit]

What do we do with references that don't work eg 1 and 3?Pieter1963 (talk) 17:35, 7 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Applications table[edit]

The applications table has rows with color-coded shading but the shading is not explained by any sort of key. A key to the color coding should be added. 71.235.29.90 (talk) 20:53, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
