LOS ANGELES — Engineers at NASA’s Dryden Flight Research Center are completing key load tests on elements of a large hypersonic inflatable aerodynamic decelerator (HIAD) that ultimately could enable larger payloads to be delivered to the surface of other planets, or returned to Earth.
While Boeing downplays reports of proposed 757 replacement study plans at the recent Singapore Airshow, the manufacturer acknowledges it is seeing “a lot of interest” for a potential new aircraft larger than the 737 but with less range than the 787. While theoretically occupying the seat capacity market niche once dominated by the out-of-production 757, the study aircraft would not be a direct successor to Boeing’s single-aisle twinjet, says Marketing Vice President Randy Tinseth.
