Using analyses of A.H.CHILVER and D.A.HARPER as bases, (see Engineering Index 1954 p 52) simplified method of calculating life expectancy of aircraft is presented and formula derived for damage per mile; stress cycle from gust data; use of direct reading charts for damage per mile and altitude corrections illustrated by calculating fatigue life of typical aircraft.
