Correct thru April and Could well well well 2024, upkeep is being conducted within the Unitary Notion Wind Tunnel (UPWT) advanced at NASA Ames Analysis Center.  One key share of this upkeep is the inspection of stators in the 3-stage compressor.  Stators are mounted blades that management the drift of air, that can reach a velocity of Mach 1.4 (about 1100 miles per hour in air at 100F) within the UPWT.  Blade resonance of the stators will more than seemingly be guilty for vital wear on the compressor.  The decide below shows the hole of the stator clamshell to enable that inspection.
