A review is given of the aircraft fatigue research and
associated activities which form part
of the programs within the Finnish Air Force Headquarters
(FiAF HQ), the Finnish Air
Force Air Materiel Command (FiAF AMC), Patria Aviation Oy
Aircraft Business Unit (PFA),
the Technical Research Centre of Finland (VTT), Helsinki

Finflo Ltd. and Emmecon Ltd.
The review summarizes fatigue related research programs
and investigations on specific
military fixed wing aircraft since the previous Finnish
National Review (presented in the
28th Conference, ICAF 2003, Luzerne, Switzerland) up to
April 2005.
