Failure of any part of aircraft like wheel, turbine blades or aircraft lap splices is decidedly hazardous. To avoid such disasters, periodic Non-Destructive Inspection of aircraft parts is essential and has been mandatory for many years. This paper describes some Eddy Current Inspection techniques like surface crack detection on aluminum alloys, bolt hole inspection, automated inspection of aircraft wheels and subsurface corrosion detection in Aircraft Lap Splices using Single as well as Dual Frequency Eddy Current techniques. With modern equipment such as SD-PC-12, with the advantages of digital precision, data acquisition, data archival and reporting, aircraft inspection has become more reliable and repeatable.
