The philosophy of operational load measurement programs as applied to rotary wing aircraft is reviewed. A major aim is to substantiate component fatigue lives in the light of operational usage. The aircraft installation to meet the needs of the programs is described. The analysis techniques, which are designed to provide the operator and engineer with a view of the origins of fatigue damage, are described. Problem areas in comprehensive fatigue monitoring systems are discussed.
