The Trent 500 that powers the A340-600 has an LLP cost of over $6 million and a shop visit cost of approximately $7 million. Based on engines that have 5,000 cycles (half life) remaining then the arithmetic calculation suggests that the LLP value is $12 million with half life between engine overhauls also representing another $14 million – a total of $26 million. Yet the value of a A340-600 is fortunate to be less than half this amount even with half life engines.
