subject: Baee Aerodynamics Support by Chrysler, Huntsville

An agreement has been, reached with Chrysler, Huntsville for them to supply
the service of one (1) aerodynamicist far the remiiiS§r of this Budget
Year and for at least six (6) months of the next Budget Year for support
of the Race AerodynaidJFs Wind Tunnel Test Program. This"'man will be
available full time and will spend as much time as necessary in Detroit
under the direction of the /.expdynamic Group in the Air Conditioning
Laboratory o

Including the man’s time and travel expenses from April 22* 1968 to July 31.
1968* Huntsville estimates a cost of $10,072. It is understood that the
exact amount to be paid Huntsville is subject to negotiations via the
Financial Staff. The funds already allocated for the Race Aerodynamics
Program*for the balance of this Budget Year appear to be^dequate to
cover this expense assuming that tunnel testing charges are got billed
until after August 1, 1968: this would be consistent with present plans.
Funds ’ . . iget sut * the
period through• January 8

Huntsville has expr^sed interest) zn providing permanent support for
our total Aerodynamic activity, and is looking on this initial involvement
as a means of developing contacts and experience in this specialized area.
Their broad experience in space aero^ylBmics and aerodynamic testing and
facilities should substantially enhance our capability in the automotive
aerodynamic field *
