European airliner manufacturer, Airbus Industrie of Toulouse, France, has developed a new thermographic inspection technique for detecting possible water ingress in composite sandwich structures. So successful has the technique proved, that Airbus Industrie is now recommending that all operators of its aircraft adopt this method as the standard inspection measure for such parts.
