The CF6 is a gas turbine engine, not an aircraft. Virtually all aircraft engines outside of very small personal planes are gas turbines. This includes turboprops, helicopter applications, all commercial aircraft (turbofan) as well as fighter jets. The primary difference is how the thrust is used. If mechanical energy is required a power turbine is used - as is done in the LM6000. The LM6000 is the industrial version of the CF6 (the cold section is largely the same). The thrust is converted to mechanical energy using a power turbine. I included this link instead of the CF6 since it provides a direct reference to power output in MW (i.e. not thrust).
