ALL TYPES - FLUTTER 

There have been a number of wing aileron flutter incidents affecting some of the newer glider types both in Australia and in some overseas countries. Some of the incidents were the results of exceeding the design airspeed limits but others occurred when flying within speed limits. In practically all of the incidents the aircraft involved had exceeded some hundreds of hours in service and none had been been affected by flutter when new when flown in similar circumstances.
