Wing fatigue damage to aircraft was examined in regard to measurements made by peak-counting accelerometers. Major causes of damage were defined as repetitive stresses caused by ground loads, air loads and the ground-air-ground cycle. These phases of the aircraft loads environment were discussed in detail. Recommendations were made on the procedure for converting accelerometer data into loads spectra.
