The proposed procedure is referred to as Gas Adsorption IndicatorMethod (GAIM). This is a relatively unknown NDT technique in the United States, but it hasbeen used for several years in the former Soviet Union, and more recently in the RussianFederation, in the Aerospace, and Power Generation industries. The educational benefits derivedfrom the inclusion of GAIM approaches in NDT Laboratory instruction are discussed.

teams.I. IntroductionIn 1991, the National Research Council stated that "U.S. industry’s period of world dominancein product design, manufacturing innovation, process engineering, productivity and marketshare has ended" [1]. This could have been a reaction to the sluggish economy, the downsizingof engineers and reduced funding for aerospace/defense and research in the US. However, inaddressing improvements necessary to develop new national goals, the Committee on Science,Engineering and Public Policy recommended that graduate education of scientists andengineers should be broader, more flexible and cross-functional [2].For the last 5 years, Loyola Marymount University (LMU) has addressed the above challengesin graduate education by forming a

flightperformance can be predictably related to the full-scale aircraft’s performance. Although manycompanies have performed scaled flight-testing of Remotely Piloted Vehicles (RPV’s),published non-proprietary information about low-cost, scaled flight-testing is essentially non-existent. The focus of the project at hand, therefore, is to compare the in-flight performancecharacteristics of a 1/3-scale flying "prototype" of a Cessna 172P to the well-documented in-flight performance characteristics of a full-scale Cessna 172P. Much flight testing has beendone by the Aerospace Engineering department at ERAU, using the 172P, such that using thisaircraft as the model for determining the validity of the scaling hypotheses is consideredtechnically sound.
