Abstract

This document was prepared for the delivery to the 30th Conference of the International Committee on Aeronautical Fatigue scheduled to be held in Naples, Italy on 1415 May 2007. A review is given of the aircraft structural fatigue research and associated activities which form part of the programs within the Finnish Air Force headquarters (FIAFHQ), the Finnish Air Force Air Materiel Command (FIAFAMC), Patria Aviation Oy, the Technical Research Centre of Finland (VTT), Helsinki University of Technology (TKK) Laboratory of Lightweight Structures (TKK/KRT), Laboratory of Aerodynamics (TKK/LAD), Tampere University of Technology Institute of Signal Processing (TUT/ISP), Finflo Oy and Emmecon Oy. The review summarises fatigue related research programs and investigations on specific military fixed wing aircraft since the previous Finnish National Review (tabled in the 29th Conference, ICAF, Hamburg Germany) up to April 2007.
