Experimental and analytical studies of spectrum sensitivity effects are reported. A typical high performance fighter aircraft load spectrum was used as a baseline one. The spectrum variations ranged from realistic variations, that might be expected among operational aircraft, to variations to investigate spectrum development and test procedures. Tests represented crack initiation and growth out of an open or a fastener filled hole. The effect of the following baseline load spectrum variations on fatigue crack initiation and growth have been evaluated.
