[Abstract-pdf] [Abstract-ps]

We study solvability of the generalized Possio integral equation which is a tool in the analysis of a boundary value problem in 2D subsonic aeroelasticity with the Kutta-Joukowski condition --- ``zero pressure discontinuity'' --- ψ(x,0,t)=0 on the complement of a finite interval in the entire real line R. The corresponding problem with boundary condition on finite intervals adjacent to the ``chord'' was considered in [16].

Keywords: Reduced wave equation, finite Hilbert transform, Fredholm determinant.
