Non-destructive testing (NDT) makes use of the controlled application of physical phenomena to materials so that interpretation of signals derived from the materials indicates their fitness, or otherwise, to perform a design function. The purpose of NDT is to ensure that mainly load carrying components and structures are free from defects. Established non-destructive testing has become of primary importance in aircraft maintenance and manufacture both as a positive indication for safety and as a method of saving costs. This article written for aircraft engineers is a broad review of the development of NDT in their industry and a brief indication of the status of its various components today.
