Description:
Visitors participated in a self-guided tour of seven major facilities hosted by Glenn staff. Pictured is Monroe Curry, Sierra Lobo, Inc./Testing Division, standing in the spray-bar section of Glenn's Icing Research Tunnel (IRT), the oldest and largest refrigerated icing wind tunnel in the world. The spray bars and refrigeration combine to create cloud conditions in the tunnel similar to nature's icing conditions. The tour, along with a video presentation, gave visitors a historical overview of the IRT's role in developing, testing and certifying methods to prevent ice buildup on aircraft.
