NASA Fundamental Aeronautics Pre-proposal Conference
"Advanced Concept Studies for Subsonic and Supersonic Commercial Transports
Entering Service in the 2030-35 Period"
Thursday, November 29, 2007
1:00 pm to 5:00 pm
L'Enfant Plaza Hotel
480 L'Enfant Plaza, Washington, DC
Ballroom A & B

+ POST-CONFERENCE MATERIALS
(presentations, attendees, other supporting materials)
Conference Description: The National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) Headquarters, Aeronautics Research Mission
Directorate (ARMD) is preparing a major addition to ROA-2007,
NNH07ZEA001N. In keeping with the current structure of the ROA NRA, ARMD
plans to amend the NRA with the detailed requirements of the "Advanced
Concept Studies for Subsonic and Supersonic Commercial Transports
Entering Service in the 2030-35 Period" proposal topic.
With this NRA solicitation, NASA is seeking to stimulate innovation and
foster the pursuit of revolutionary conceptual designs for aircraft that
could enter into service in the 2030-35 time period. The focus is on
both subsonic and supersonic transports that can overcome significant
performance and environmental challenges for the benefit of the general
public. Furthermore, these conceptual studies will identify key
technology development needs and opportunities that will enable such
vehicles. Additional details including specific metrics and objectives,
vehicles classes, range and scope of technologies of interest, and
expectations for proposals will be provided at this conference.
This NRA is being planned as a multi-million dollar effort performed
over two phases spanning a period of two and a half to three years, with
potential for follow-on efforts.
Interaction with the broad aeronautics community at the Pre-proposal
Conference will support refinement of the NRA topic to be released soon
after the conference.
Opportunities to ask questions, solicit clarification, and offer
improvements to the study scope will be provided. Teaming discussions
with other participants will be encouraged.
