Jump to postNot sure if it's related but I was randomly looking at operations in DXB half an hour ago on flightradar and for at least 15 minutes nobody landed nor took off, with 2 planes already on final seemingly touching down only to give full throttle again and holding more time.

For Airbus it is engine type, 4 stands for Rolls Royce, 1 for the 1st Rolls engine developed, each serious innovation of the engine gets an incremental number.
