Sling load stability data
Sling load stability data
(OP)
Does anyone have any data on sling load instabilities. Flight test data would be load / vehicle / airspeed information and possibly a description of the load motion, and if the test was instrumented there could be time histories of controls and hook loads. Wind tunnel data would be load shape/weight, airspeed, frequency, etc.
I'd like to correlate a sling load stability model against measured data.

I think the unit is now called JATEU (Joint Air Transport Evaluation Unit); although it was called something else when I flew loads for them under a Puma in the late 1970s. I think it's still based at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire. They might be able to give some general advice for your consideration.
