The FSF representatives, from industry and academia, are looking for opportunities to leverage NASA simulation and modelling capabilities. The presentation and follow-up discussion focused on how to use this simulation capability to support low-altitude operations.

The meeting, held at the NASA Aeronautics Research Institute at Moffett Field, was the first in a series of TIMs planned for the first phase of a Space Act Agreement (SAA) that was signed on May 11, 2022. The partnership between NASA and Northrop Grumman is aimed at flight demonstrations for validating technologies and procedures needed to integrate remotely piloted operations into the National Airspace System (NAS) for scalable and efficient cargo deliveries. This initial TIM was focused on airworthiness and certification processes and included topics on the certification of autonomy, airworthiness concerns for contingency management, and methods to calculate the probability of off-nominal events. It was agreed to continue discussions on airworthiness, with a focus on requirements for a potential PAAV flight demonstration at Moffett Field. Preparations were made for a second TIM at Northop Grumman’s facility near San Diego in August 2022. That meeting will focus on scenarios for increasingly autonomous air cargo operations to help define specific objectives for flight demonstration and related data collection.
