    Rolls-Royce Deutschland is a subsidiary of aircraft engine maker Rolls-Royce plc with facilities at Dahlewitz outside Berlin and at Oberursel near Frankfurt am Main. It was formerly BMW Rolls-Royce (BRR), a joint venture company between BMW and Rolls-Royce established in 1990 to produce the BR700 family of jet engines.
    Rolls-Royce took full control of the company in 2000, renaming it Rolls-Royce Deutschland. As well as continuing to produce the Rolls-Royce BR700 family of turbofans, the subsidiary is also involved in the Europrop TP400 engine for the Airbus A400M military transport plane.
    Rolls-Royce Deutschland has inherited responsibility for the Tay, Spey and IAE V2500 two shaft turbofans and the Dart turboprop from the parent company, allowing the Derby site to concentrate on its three shaft civil turbofans.






    It's a subsidiary of a BRITISH owned company

    Anyway going back into Joe's time warp and related to Rolls Royce aero engines - in 1946 the Labour Govt and their Communist Trade Minister Cripps gave Rolls Royce Nene jet engines to Stalins Russia thus helping fuel the cold war

    Following the Tories’ third election victory, they were sufficiently confident to roll out their most aggressive privatisation programme yet. British Steel, British Petroleum, Rolls Royce, British Airways, water and electricity were among the major utilities for sale. These privatisations provoked serious opposition, perhaps sufficient to curb any tendency toward privatisation in the National Health Service. Nonetheless, market-driven measures continued to be imposed in the public sector, from the “internal market” in the health service to Major’s ill-fated citizen’s charter.

    Including thousands of council houses originally earmarked for the poor.

    I didn't notice many Labour voters turning down THAT opportunity.
