Light aircraft and gliders are constructed by small manufacturers who do not have the manpower or financial resources to evaluate flutter safety with the costly modern sophisticated test and analysis techniques available to large companies. Future low cost reconnaissance, liaison, RPV and other military aircraft could be designed and built by such small aircraft manufacturers. This Specialists Meeting was therefore held to evaluate the usage of low cost aircraft flutter clearance procedures. Some results occurring from such procedures (weight efficiency, safety, flight incidents, and overall costs) were discussed relative to those from methods using advanced state-of-the-art. The relative technological-financial position of the small lightweight aircraft manufacturer was also discussed. The difficulties that still exist and the progress to be expected in the next few years were exposed.
