Dynamic camber theory is developed for determining loads and motions of seaplanes planing on water surface while undergoing pitching rotation; comparisons with classic linearized airfoil theory and low aspect ratio-oscillating airfoil data; effects on longitudinal pressure distribution; examples indicate that rotational effects are more important for narrow hull than for pivoted shock-mounted hydro-ski.
