To provide a better opportunity, therefore, for the aerospace mechanisms designer to compare and correlate the specific knowledge gained from a wide variety of important mechanism design efforts, the First Aerospace Mechanisms Symposium was held on 19-20 May 1966. This Symposium, dealing exclusively with aerospace mechanism design and development, was sponsored by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of the California Institute of Technology, Lockheed Missiles & Space Company, and the University of Santa Clara. The first aerospace symposium with such broad sponsorship, is supplied the first forum for an extensive discussion in depth of ideas, problems, and accomplishments regarding aerospace mechanisms. It stressed the practical aspects, with emphasis on actual flight test data and correlation with analytical predictions. This volume presents the papers offered at the Symposium in order to provide the aerospace mechanisms designer with a useful source of ideas and information and to serve as a stimulant to the continuance of a periodic professional interchange in the field of aerospace mechanisms.
