yeah i worked on those type of engines anywhere from smaller ones like on the black hawks t7o3's, medium sized turboshafts like on the chinooks (GET55) to airliner engines.
i worked on Pratt engines, GE engines, and rolls royce turbines
i love working on them, specially when u wind them up to 90-95% Nspeed. then you can littery feel the power going through you
the bigger engines run anywhere from 6-30k rpm, the smaller ones can run anywhere from 30-100k rpm.
it all depends how the the PT shaft and nozzles are balanced and how efficient the flow is on it.
