Question

Which of the following are standard inspection methods of aircraft materials?

(a) Radiography and fatigue test

(b) Magnaflux and bending inspection

(c) Radiography and magnaflux inspection

(d) Fatigue and bending inspection

I have been asked this question in unit test.

This interesting question is from Testing Aircraft Materials topic in section Testing Aircraft Materials of Aerospace Materials & Processes

Answer 1

The correct answer is (c) Radiography and magnaflux inspection

Explanation: It is materials being used in aircraft construction that should not experience failure while usage. Hence, it is crucial for the materials to undergo inspection to detect any cracks or defects. There are two standard inspection methods, they are radiography and magnaflux inspection.
