Abstract

During the task to extend the applicability of the OSTIV Airworthiness Standards (OSTIVAS) to sailplanes and powered sailplanes operated outside mass limitations covered by OSTIVAS today, it was regarded to be desirable to learn how OSTIVAS developed and which influences and contributions to OSTIVAS can be found in OSTIV-Publications.  As early publications are no longer available, the author scanned old documents and collected them in a literature listing and prepared a CD which is available from the author.  Summaries of the articles selected from OSTIV-Publications are given in the paper together with the impact they may have had on OSTIVAS.
