Download or read book Accelerations and Passenger Harness Loads Measured in Full-scale Light-airplane Crashes written by A. Martin Eiband and published by . This book was released on 1953 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Full-scale light-airplane crashes simulating stall-spin accidents were conducted to determine the decelerations to which occupants are exposed and the resulting harness forces encountered in this type of accident. Crashes at impact speeds from 42 to 60 miles per hour were studied. The airplanes used were of the familiar steel-tube, fabric-covered, tandem, two-seat type.
