• Abstract:
  The Aging Aircraft NDI Development and Demonstration Center (AANC) at Sandia National Laboratories is charged by the FAA to support technology transfer, technology assessment, and technology validation. A key task facing the center is to establish a consistent and systematic methodology to assess the reliability of inspections through field experiments. This task is divided into three major areas: reliability of eddy current lap splice inspections at transport aircraft maintenance facilities, reliability of inspection at commuter aircraft maintenance facilities, and reliability of inspection associated with visual inspection of aircraft structural parts.
