Counting accelerometers have been used to record normal acceleration on BOAC Comet 4 and RAF Comet 4C aircraft for flight distances of 910,000 km and 388,000 km respectively. Two Comet 4 aircraft carried instruments and a significant difference is found between the frequencies of gusts observed on each. Revised data for the BOAC Comet 1 and RAF Comet 2 are presented and comparison of the four fleets shows that loads were recorded more often on the civil airline operations. The effect of the cloud warning radar carried by only the later aircraft is studied. (Author)
