Buffet onset measurements were performed on a low aspect ratio, moderately swept, aircraft model at three transonic Mach numbers in the 1.2 m tunnel. Instrumentation included wing root strain gauges, a wing tip accelerometer, wing trailing edge pressure taps, and standard six component internal strain gauge balance. Results of buffet onset obtained by these different techniques are compared. A discussion of the buffet onset results, as it relates to the main features of the flow on the wing upper surface, is also included.
