The form of a new procedure for evaluating helicopter vibration is described. Guidance to aircraft designers is offered for three categories of vibration exposure: whole-body vibration of aircrew, the legibility of vibrating instruments, and local vibration of aircrew heads, hands, and feet. The derivation of the evaluation procedure is presented and areas where more research is required are defined. Examples of how the procedure may be used to evaluate helicopter vibration are given and the vibration conditions reported in some helicopters are compared with the recommended vibration limits.
