Abstract

Resonance testing performed on many types of aircraft proved to be very helpful for forecasting of flutter and its prevention.  The results of prototype resonance tests permitted the forecasting of flutter by taking advantage of the large experience before flight testing. They also suggested the direction of future design modifications.
