mrrrr both uv unci heard what
Ik union on nt the Hix-lnu In
Ntalliillon In (he north I'ml of
tho county when thoy took their
field trip there on Monday,
May 8. Many of thorn had nev
er seen the testing facilities
about which they had hoard so
much.
With Don DoorMlnKor, Boo
ln'n nianaeor In Morrow coun
ty as cordial host, the touring
members witnessed a tost run
of a bl Jet outline mounted on
a stationary ground level pad.
I his was a part of the compa
ny's current noise suppression
tostlni; proeram.
After a word of caution from
the manager about tho nolso
that tho online would develop,
most of the tourlnt; business
people watched from tho bus
some 3(M) yards nway. Tho on
Sine started with a whine that
Rrow prottressivoly louder. Af
ter several minutes there was
a loud bant; when the after
burner cut In and a deafen
Inu roar followed for another
few minutes until the engine
was snut down.
Kven from tho distance of
their viewing point, the cham
ber members couldn't talk ov
en by shouting at the height
of the run.
Uoerfllnger had explained
that tho engine develops 22,000
pounds of thrust, and It con
sumes 93 gallons of fuel nor
minute. A steel frame on which
It stands provides information
on the thrust.
In order to keep from blow
ing nwny the sundy soil by ex
haust of the engine, the com
pany hauled In G50 yards of
rock to spread over the ground
behind the test stand. But even
so, at the height of the tost, a
good sized dust cloud was whip
ped up by tho turbulence.
The testing Is controlled from
a trailer house nearby, with
wires and cables running to tho
engine. In the blockhouse, some
distance away In another dir
ection, television cameras bring"
pictures of the engine in oper
ation and data Is recorded here.
Technicians were busy In the
blockhouse, during the inspec
tion tour, working on consoles
that record data from the test
ing. Sounds of the operating
engine are recorded on tapes.
Gene Kelly Is project super
visor on the noise suppression
testing.
This program Is being done
on "Test Stand No. 2" at ground
level. The steel pud is kept spot
less during the tests In order
to prevent grit and dirt from
getting Into the engine.
Standing inactive some dis
