Based on the principles of structural fatigue and the Tornado fatigue tests, which should prove a sufficient fatigue life, the necessity for fatigue life monitoring of the operational aircraft is shown. The Tornado fatigue life monitoring concept is presented, including the maintenance recorder for the comprehensive damage analysis, and the onboard life monitoring system structural life program for individual aircraft tracking. The additional equipment used for high frequency load analysis is described. Data evaluation, results, and the logistic integration of the calculated structural maintenance activities are mentioned.
