Nasa Awards Two General Aviation Propulsion Cooperative Agreements Contract
Cleveland, Ohio NASA's Lewis Research Center has awarded two cooperative agreements in support of the Agency's General Aviation Propulsion (GAP) program.
Williams International, Walled Lake, MI, was selected for negotiation of a $37 million cooperative agreement to develop a turbine engine. Under this four-year agreement, the company will develop and flight demonstrate break-through, low-cost turbine engine propulsion systems. The turbine engine concepts are for light general aviation aircraft with six seats or less and cruising airspeeds greater than 200 knots. The work will be conducted at their facilities in Walled Lake as well as at Lewis, NASA's Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA, and NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, CA.
The major goal of the Williams International agreement is to develop technologies and manufacturing processes for low-cost, environmentally compliant, innovative turbine engine propulsion systems.
Teledyne Continental Motors, Mobile, AL, was selected for negotiation of a $9.5 million cooperative agreement to develop an Intermittent Combustion Engine.
Under this three year agreement, the company will develop and flight demonstrate affordable, lightweight, innovative Intermittent Combustion (IC) propulsion systems. The IC concepts are for entry-level general aviation aircraft with single engines, four seats and cruising airspeed of less than 200 knots. The work will be conducted at their facilities in Mobile and at Lewis.
The major goal of the Teledyne Continental Motors agreement is to develop technologies and manufacturing processes that reduce engine prices by one half while substantially improving reliability, maintainability as well as meeting future emission and noise requirements.

Definition:
Landing illusions occur in many forms. Above featureless terrain at night, there is a natural tendency to fly a lower-than-normal approach. Elements that cause any type of visual obscuration, such as rain, haze, or a dark runway environment also can cause low approaches.
Duck-Under Syndrome
Definition:
A pilot may be tempted to make it into an airport by descending below minimums during an approach. There may be a belief that there is a built-in margin of error in every approach procedure, or a pilot may want to admit that the landing cannot be completed and a missed approach must be initiated.
Wake Turbulence
Definition:
Wake turbulence is a concern whenever small aircraft share an airport with larger ones. The powerful vortices that spiral off the wing tips of heavier aircraft—turboprops and business jets, as well as airliners— can suddenly and unexpectedly toss a small airplane out of control.
