Are the engines on the LR models larger than the other 777 versions? They sure look larger. Beautiful airplane.

the 777LR has only one engine option, the GE90-115

compared to the baseline GE90 on the earlier 777s the fan diameter is 128" vs 123".

visually the engine looks a lot larger than just 5" more in diameter...
