Abstract
An investigation was made into the loads occurring on the skis of an aeroplane during the landing impact. Bending moments along the skiboards were measured, during one winter while vertical, drag, side, and torque loads were measured the following winter. For the latter, the corresponding normal accelerations, vertical velocities and attitudes of the aeroplane at contact were also obtained. No conclusions are drawn in view of the small number of landings but comparison is made of the measured values and the ICAO design requirements.
