>>a document on how the GFA would like it performed

Doesn't this vary from manufacturer to manufacturer? Some allow wing
frequency checks while on the wheel while others require the fuselage
to be in a cradle or similar. My guess is that the GFA would say
'follow the manufacturer's recommendations'.

Here's one they prepared earlier:

Wing oscillation frequency:
approx. 160/min    15 m span with winglets
approx. 130/min:   18 m span without parting
approx. 124/min:   18 m span with parting and winglets

Aircraft should rest on both wheels during frequency measurements.

I think the last part is critical for each manufacturer.
