The CFM56-5C series is the most powerful of the CFM56 family, with a thrust rating ranging from 31,200 to 34,000 lbf. It entered service in 1993 and powers Airbus’ long-range A340-200 and -300 airliners. The primary differences include a bigger fan, a fifth low-pressure turbine stage, and the same four-stage low-pressure compressor as the -5B model.
