WALLOPS ISLAND Va.—The world’s
most sophisticated research aircraft the
Sikorsky built NASA/Army Rotor Systems
Research Aircraft (RSRA) made its first
flight April 10 as a compound helicopter-
fixed wing aircraft at NASA’s Flight
Center here.
Powered by two auxiliary TF34 turbofan
engines mounted below the rotor system
the RSRA accelerated down the runway
early on April 10 and climbed to an altitude
of 1500 feet using the combined lift of its
45-foot wing and five blade S-61 rotor
system. The rotor system is powered by
two T-58 General Electric turboshaft
engines.
At the controls for the first compound
flight were Sikorsky experimental test
pilots Charles Reine and Gerald Stofer.
Two RSRA “flying wind tunnels” were
produced by Sikorsky for use by NASA and
the Army in what Sikorsky RSRA program
Manager Arthur W. Linden described as a
“joint research program aimed at de-
veloping the technology needed to increase
rotor aircraft speed performance re-
liability and safety and to reduce noise
vibration and maintenance.”
Both aircraft will be tested by the
manufacturer under contract with NASA
Longley Research Center Hampton
Va. for approximately 80 hours flight
time prior to delivery to NASA and the
Army at NASA’s Ames Research Center
Moffett Field Calif. later this year.
Today’s flight was made by the number
one RSRA the same vehicle which earlier
recorded the first flight of a fully qualified
helicopter emergency escape system (Nov-
ember 19 1977). The emergency escape
system provides for severance of the main
rotor blades separation and fragmentation
of the canopies and sequenced upward ex-
traction of the crew using tractor rocket
motors.

The 1st Cav. Div. recently sponsored the
first FORSCOM Assertiveness Workshop
for Women but results of the workshop will
not be known for another two months.
The workshop which was held April 18-20
at the Cav. Div. Religious Education
Center was the direct result of survey
given to 1st Cav. Div. soldiers four months
ago. Assessment results indicated that

U.S. uniform restrictions
setforNarita airport
WASHINGTON (ARNEWS) A permanent defense
foreign clearance guide change has imposed uniform wear
restrictions for service members who travel through
Narita airport near Tokyo after its opening. The airport
opening has been delayed due to demonstrations and is
tentatively scheduled to open May 20.
The restrictions prohibit U.S. service members from
wearing uniforms while stopping or traveling through
Narita whether traveling on official orders or on private
business.
Army RSRA makes first flight
The number two aircraft also undergo-
ing tests at Wallops is equipped with a uni-
que rotor vibration isolation system that
provides wideband attenuation of vibra-
tions to the fuselage from the main rotor.
This feature allows for the installation of
different rotors on the RSRA without
modification to the fuselage.
Sikorsky was awarded the $25-million
contract to produce two RSRA test vehicles
by NASA and the Army in January 1974.
The award followed the company’s win
over the Bell Helicopter Division of Tex-
tron Corp. in a competition held in August
1973.
Sam White the NASA/Army project
manager explained that the RSRA “Will
provide the United States with a highly
sophisticated and much needed public
facility for the continued development and
understanding of rotary wing technology.”
White who will move with the RSRA to
Ames Research Center as chief of
helicopter technology and will be charged
with conducting research investigations
explained that “the RSRA helicopters will
be used by NASA and the Army to in-
vestigate and evaluate a wide variety of ex-
misting and advanced rotor systems.”
According to White “The RSRA will help
eliminate the costly practice of having to
develop or extensively modify helicopter
aircraft in order to conduct flight investiga-
tions for each promising new rotor concept.
Tlie RSRA are readily adaptable to accom-
modate new rotors and to provide precise
measurements of a variety of rotors under
repeatable test conditions.”
Offering highly accurate test and
measurement capabilities far beyond those
of ground-based wind tunnels or other ex-
misting aircraft the RSRA will permit rotor
systems to be tested over a wide range of
maneuvers altitudes and airspeeds. This

type of testing particularly the maneuver-
ing flight cannot be carried out in a wind
tunnel. In addition the RSRA will allow a
better assessment of rotor performance
because of its ability to isolate in-flight
rotor peculiarities from aircraft system
characteristics another capability not pre-

Because of its fixed wing capability the

purpose of putting together the assertive-
ness workshop.
The workshop itself is a two-pronged ef-
fort. While 25 women were receiving as-
sertiveness training in one part of the build-
ing their supervisors were being educated
in another. The women received training in
skills ranging from communications de-
cision making and goal planning to
clarification and of course assertiveness.

Preventioifc
Summer is just around the comer and a
lot of people will use their bicycles for
transportation and to enjoy the fresh air.
Bicycling can be a safe and enjoyable ac-
tivity if you take care. The number of
bicycles in use has doubled in the last 20
years and so has the number of fatal bicy-
cle accidents. About 820 bicyclists are
killed in collisions between motor vehicles
and bikes each year over 50 percent occur
at intersections 70 percent are in daylight.
Most of these accidents are due to failure to
Ifollow the “Rules of the Road.” If you will
1 follow these do’s and don’ts your chances of
1 being injured are less.
DO’S
Keep to the right hand side of the road
Go with the traffic
Ride single file if with a group
Obey all traffic signals and signs
If possible use less traveled roads
Walk your bicycle across busy streets ex-
cept when signaling
Give pedestrians the right of way
Ride in a straight line
Keep your eyes straight ahead

WORLD’SMOST SOPHISTICATED RESEARCH AIRCRAFT:
NASA/Army Rotar Systems Research Aircraft (RSRA) made its first
flight as a compound helicopter-fixed wing aircraft on April 10 at NASA’s
Wallops Flight Center Wallops Island Va. Two RSRA “Flying wind tun-
nels” were built by United Technologies’ Sikorsky division for use by
NASA and the Army in the research and development of advanced
helicopter rotor systems. (U.S. Army Photo)
RSRA will be able to test rotor systems
that might otherwise be too small to sup-
port the aircraft or those with unproven
control characteristics. It will also provide
an extra margin of safety for the crew. In
the event of trouble with a rotor system it
can be pyrotechnically separated without
jeopardizing the RSRA’s ability to return
safely to base.
made women tick what type of problems
they face and how to best handle these pro-
blems. They also learned what to expect
from their newly assertive female workers.
The 1st Cav. Div. Equal Opportunity Of-
fice hopes to make this workshop a
division-wide program but first they plan
to wait two months and interview the stu-
dents of their first effort. If the reaction is
favorable the 1st Cav. Div. may soon have
a whole new breed of women and
supervisors^
Keep behind moving cars
Wear light colored clothes at night be sure
your bicycle has reflectors and lights.
DON’TS
Don’t ride on high speed highways
Don’t ride on sidewalks
Don’t carry bundles that limit your vision
or hinder your balance
Don’t ake repairs on the road
Don’t ride a bicycle that is not in good
condition
Don’t give directional signals as you
turn give advance notice
Don’t pass on hills or curves where vis-
ibility is poor
Don’t park in spaces reserved for cars
Don’t leave the scene of an accident
Bicycling is one of the best ways to ex-
ercise keeps your weight down and builds
your muscles up.
Remember also Texas traffic laws apply
to persons riding bicycles.
