The magnitudes and frequencies of buffeting loads on the horizontal tail of a fighter-type airplane have been determined in flight for Mach numbers to about 0.80. Conditions of flight under which buffeting of the horizontal tail occurs have also been determined. For the test airplane, buffeting of the horizontal tail occurred simultaneously with the attainment of maximum normal force at Mach numbers below about 0.6. Above this value of Mach number, buffeting occurred before the attainment of maximum normal force.
