Howard and other AEDC employees traveled to the NASA Dryden facility in Palmdale, Calif., in early 2011 to take part in the Alternate Aviation Fuel Experiment (AAFEX 2). Howard has used his research to help the Society of Automotive Engineers in establishing an international standard for measuring particulate emissions from turbine engines. (Photo provided)
