Description is given of derivation of test loads and design of loading systems for fullscale fatigue test on CF-100 military aircraft; test procedure and events leading up to catastrophic failure of wing transport joint are also described; results show that dangerous cracks in wing transport joint may occur at lives in excess of 4000 service hr, and that catastrophic failure may occur at upwards of 4800 service hr; cracks that developed in vertical fin are not likely to occur prior to wing failure, but appropriate inspection techniques are available.
