AEROSPACE ENGINE TESTING Aerospace Engine Testing – The Sky’s the Limit. Hoffer Flow Controls turbine flowmeters are used to test large propulsion engines within the aerospace industry. Hoffer turbine flowmeters have played a key support role since the early 1960’s with work on the Saturn program, the Space Shuttle Program, and now Hoffer flow meters will be used for testing the first and second stage engines on NASA’s new heavy lift rocket, the SLS or Space Launch System. Designed to carry astronauts back to the moon and beyond to Mars, the SLS provides the US with its first manned flight capability since the end of the Space Shuttle Program in August, 2011. NASA conducts most testing of rocket engines and engine components at its state-of-the-art facilities located at the John C. S
