The monitoring of corrosion relies upon the regular and costly inspection of the complete airframe. The use of a sentry device within the airframe to monitor the conditions associated with corrosion would enable better and quicker corrosion management. The initial experimental work has shown that the use of a plasma sprayed track for the electrical resistance monitoring of atmospheric corrosion provides a sensitive and stable system. Furthermore the simultaneous monitoring of other environmental conditions associated with corrosion provides greater opportunity to detect the earliest on set of corrosion. These combined within a unit that is both small and lightweight provides engineers with a valuable tool to monitor the corrosion within an aircraft and especially the areas that have poor access.
