NASA is back in the research and development business with regard to rotorcraft, if only in a relatively small way. Odilyn Maria, an aerospace engineer on the National Aeronautics and Space Administration booth at the Paris Airshow told rotorhub.com that there was $26.1 million allocated in the FY 10 Federal budget for its Subsonic Rotary Wing projects.

Among the technical challenges the NASA research will focus on are three-dimensional rotor and fuselage structures; unsteady flows in speed regimes from low subsonic to high transonic, dynamically stalled components, and highly loaded propulsion systems.
