Non-destructive testing of aircraft wing with liquid penetrant method

Öz

Today's aviation industry is developing, renewing, and growing day by day. More growth in this developing sector means more damage and accidents that may occur. In order for the flight to be safe and secure, there must be daily, weekly, monthly and annual maintenance with the maintenance procedures mentioned in the aircraft maintenance manuals. In addition to being economical, non-destructive testing methods are of great importance in the maintenance of aircraft structures due to their rapid application and clear results. Visible or invisible failures on aircraft components are detected by non-destructive control methods applied by the qualified persons. With the liquid penetrant method, which is one of the non-destructive testing methods, surface discontinuities or defects of materials can be detected effectively. In this study, non-destructive testing of aircraft wing parts by the liquid penetrant method was investigated. As a result of the control process with the liquid penetrant method, the impact damage and various scratches at the wing were detected.
