Flight Loads Acquisition for PZL-130 Orlik TCII Full Scale Fatigue Test

Abstract

The following article presents the research conducted under a complex structure integrity program for PZL-130 "Orlik" TC-II trainer aircraft. The aim of the research was to obtain the actual flight loads characteristic for the Polish Air Force which further on will be used to determine characteristic load spectrum for the Full Scale Fatigue Test purpose. This paper presents the methodology as well as a brief discussion of the obtained results.
