The USAF has produced a firefighter's drill to be used for aircraft fires. This report describes preliminary studies which were conducted to establish a data base for the design of a robotic manipulator for the drill. The loads associated with drilling of aircraft skins are measured and characterized. Link flexibility effects are studied and manipulator modeling and control issues are identified.
