A description of the shortened version of the Transport Wing Standard Program (TWIST) is given. In all cases where testing time is a prohibitive factor to use TWIST, it is proposed to use this shortened program. The user of this shortened program should be aware that in most cases the load cycles with high frequency and low amplitude omitted in MINITWIST would contribute to damage; thus the results will overestimate the fatigue life.
