Aircraft Component Inspection
Aircraft component inspection is critical in determining the status and effectiveness of the aircraft’s manufactured or repaired parts. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the governing body of all civil aviation in the United States and over international waters, provides specific regulations and technical information that ensures quality in aircraft component manufacturing and maintenance/repair/overhaul (MRO). Meeting and exceeding FAA regulations is paramount.
Persons who carry out these visual inspections range from private pilots to hired professionals working in MRO facilities. Quality Assurance Managers and Aircraft Inspectors design and perform visual checks, and their work is critical as the first line of defense against safety-related failures on aircraft components. The right tool is always needed to perform their job to ensure the quality and safety of the parts being inspected.
