Results are presented of normal-load-factor calculations made for a lightnormal-category airplane and a light transport-category airplane traversing the trailing vortices generated by each of three heavy transport airplanes. With each light airplane, the normal load factors were determined for several penetration paths lying i n a plane perpendicular to the trailing vortices and for three center-of-gravity locations and velocities. Also determined for the light normal-category airplane were the elevator deflections required to maintain 1 g flight and the vertical displacements of the airplane from the prescribed penetration paths while transversing the vortices.
