A gas turbine engine includes a fan drive turbine driving a low pressure compressor, and driving a gear reduction to in turn drive a fan rotor at a speed slower than the fan drive turbine. The turbine section further includes a high pressure turbine driving the high pressure compressor. The fan drive turbine and low pressure compressor are connected by a shaft and the fan drive turbine, the shaft and the low pressure compressor define a low pressure spool. The gas turbine engine is rated to provide an amount of thrust at maximum takeoff, and a low spool thrust ratio defined as a ratio of a torque on the low pressure spool at maximum takeoff in ft-lbs and the maximum takeoff thrust being defined in lbf, with the low spool torque ratio being greater than or equal to 0.70 ft-lb/lbf, and less than or equal to 1.2 ft-lb/lbf.

A method for creating a three-dimensional (3D) mark in a protective coating including at least one of a TBC and a bond coating over a metal part, is provided. The method may include positioning a mask over the protective coating, the mask including an opening pattern therein; and performing an abrasive waterjet process on the protective coating using the mask. The abrasive waterjet erodes a first portion of the protective coating exposed through the first opening pattern to create the 3D mark. The mask is removed, leaving the 3D mark in the protective coating. The 3D mark only partially penetrates through the protective coating. A metal part may include a metal body, a protective coating over the metal body, and the 3D mark in the protective coating, is also provided. The 3D mark in the protective coating may include an opening having a width of between 30 and 300 micrometers.
