Aircraft experience various loads, including aerodynamic, gravitational, and inertial forces, which are crucial for structural integrity and safety. The FAA provides extensive online resources regarding aircraft loads, particularly in Parts 23 and 25 of the Airworthiness Standards. Recommended reading includes "Analysis and Design of Flight Vehicle Structures" by E.F. Bruhn, despite being out of print, and "Aircraft Structures" by David J. Peery and J.J. Azar, noted for its comprehensive coverage. These resources are essential for understanding the complexities of aircraft loads. Familiarity with these materials will enhance knowledge in aircraft design and safety standards.
