The @usairforce U-2 “Dragon Lady” requires the pilot to wear a pressurized flight suit and a chase car to follow at high speeds to safeguard U-2s and their pilots by radioing altitude and runway alignments during takeoffs and landings.

The Justice Department has sent subpoenas to NASA, Boeing and Doug Loverro, who led the agency’s marquee space travel program until he resigned abruptly in May, as part of a grand-jury investigation into the possible violation of federal procurement laws, the sources said.

 

In the probe, opened in June, prosecutors are focusing on communication between Loverro and Boeing space executive Jim Chilton in late January, during a blackout period for the Human Landing System competition, one of the sources said.

 

Representatives for Boeing and Loverro declined to comment. NASA declined to comment on personnel matters and the status of any investigation, but said the agency was confident in its procurement processes.
