Inside the "floating" control room at the General Electric Company's jet center at Lockland Ohio, instruments record every phase of a turbojet engine's performance under test. Suspension of the room on rubber and cushioning it by air from the adjoining jet engines test cells reduces sound and minimizes possibilities of instrument error through vibration.
