Turbofans are by your own definition jet engines. It's just that the bypass air is much larger.

  I think you meant turboprop there, but the distinction I notice is that one has all propulsive airflow inside the nacelle, and one does not.

    Agh. No, I meant turbofan, but I misread your post and actually completely agree with you - turboprobs are not jet engines.

      Ha! It happens. Enjoy your weekend.
