The problem of determining unsteady airloads on a thin, three-dimensional, planar wing oscillating with infinitesimal amplitude in a transonic flow is considered. The flow is assumed to be governed by the transonic small disturbance equation. The unsteady disturbance is taken to be a small perturbation superposed on a given steady mean flowfield. The equations governing the unsteady field, allowing for induced oscillations of any embedded shocks, are obtained. The linearization is shown to fail, locally, at the intersection of a shock with the wing surface, although the failure has little influence on the sectional characteristics of the wing.
