Abstract
Some six years ago, I was a member of the IUTAM Bureau and participated in General Assemblies where the possible subjects for future symposia were discussed. As boundary layer problems are dealt with in many international meetings, there was not much enthousiasm for their selection, until Professor Michel made his proposal for this symposium devoted to unsteady turbulent boundary layers, which is already a wide domain of interest for aerodynamicists.
