Going Outside NASA for Aeronautics Expertise

7 January 2005: NASA Presolicitation Notice: Design and Fabrication of Wind Tunnel Models, NASA GRC

“The University of Illinois is uniquely qualified to design the models as they have extensive experience in the design and development of wind tunnel models and testing methods, and have collaborated with NASA on many icing tunnel and aerodynamic tunnel test programs.”

Editor’s note: I wonder if GRC folks consulted with ARC or LaRC aeronautics folks about in-house aeronautics expertise — before going outside the agency to get some.
