;Contents: Dyanmic loads in a rigid rotor from full-scale wind-tunnel tests; an aeroelastic study of helicopter rotor systems in high-speed flight; in-flight measurement of steady and oscillatory rotor shaft loads; full-scale flight test data relating to rotor unsteady aerodynamics; experimental and theoretical study of local induced velocities over a rotor disc; rotor airloads; comparison of flight measured helicopter rotor blade chordwise pressure distributions and two-dimensional airfoil characteristics; a discussion of rotor blade harmonic airloading; and an experimental investigation of the effect of a non-rigid wake on rotor blade airloads in transition flight.
