I really wasn't impressed with the "push" of the 318's Engines. Yes, Nelso, some of the 318's use the PW's, but it is my understanding that Frontier oredered them on that airplane to match their 319's. As for personal preference, I'd have to say the Rolls Royce RB211-535s used on the L10's, along with the more powerfull version used on the 75/767. Those things really give a nice growl and have a decent kick to them.

They have that kick because they are a 3-spool design. They spin up faster. Unfortunately, I've never flown on a plane with RB211's
