Literally working above the clouds which can be seen in the background, General Electric's Aircraft Gas Turbine test engineers prepare for another engine run. Shown above is the air intake side of the test hanger. This was one of those beautiful days when the air conditions weren't right and water had to be sprayed into the inlet duct of the engine. The spray rig has just been attached.
