Mr. Trucco was a Vice President and Principal Scientist at GASL, Inc., where he has been a full-time staff member since 1968 until 1994. He headed both the design and fabrication departments. His activities have involved projects related to analytical and experimental research in advanced propulsion systems and components, low and high speed combustion, air pollution and energy conservation. Mr. Trucco was responsible for design and fabrication of wind tunnel components such as air heaters, water-cooled nozzles, vacuum-producing air ejectors and scramjet engine models for both the NASA Langley Research Center and NASP related programs. In particular, Mr. Trucco has been involved in planning and designing a low speed premixed combustion test apparatus for NASA Lewis and premixed and diffusion type supersonic combustion tests for NASA Langley, the design and manufacture of a laser diffuser model for NASA Ames and an x-ray scanner for computerized tomography for an industrial client, the design of a transonic wind tunnel for NASA Langley and the development of industrial burner concepts to improve combustion efficiency and reduce emission levels. He has also been responsible for an analytical study of bypass turbojet engines with supersonic fans for NASA Lewis, for design of a turbofan engine simulator for wind tunnel testing for General Dynamics, for the analysis of an advanced helicopter propulsion concept for the Allison Division of General Motors, and for an experimental research in coal-water slurry fueled diesel engine. Prior to 1968, Mr. Trucco was employed as Research Scientist by The Marquardt Corporation (1966-67) where he was responsible for operation of their Hypersonic Hot-Shot Tunnel. From 1965 to 1966, he was employed by the Argentine Air Force as a scientist; he studied servo-controlled stagnation temperature probes that eliminate radiation error. From 1963 to 1965, he was employed by GASL where he participated in experimental hypersonic wake research, shock tunnel testing, engine performance prediction and scramjet inlet design. From 1955 to 1963, he was employed by the Argentine Air Force Aeronautical Institute and was initially responsible for research and testing on reciprocating aviation and automobile engines and later for operation of a subsonic and a supersonic wind tunnel. During the period of 1957 to 1963, Mr. Trucco supported a concurrent university teaching activity in thermodynamics, mechanisms and propulsion. Mr. Trucco holds an Aeronautical Engineering degree (1955) and a Mechanical Engineering degree (1960), both from the
