A study is made of the landing of an airplane on a fuselage with "planned" curvature of its lower surface. Initial contact is considered to stop the vertical motion of a point remote from the center of gravity, thus causing rocking on the curved lower surface which converts sinking-speed energy into angular energy in pitch for dissipation by damping forces. Analysis is made of loads and motions for a given fuselage shape, and the contours required to give desired load histories are determined. Most of the calculations involve initial contact at the tail, but there are two cases of unflared landings with initial contact at the nose. The calculations are checked experimentally for the tail - low case.
