The Aging Aircraft NDI Development and Demonstration Center (AANC) at Sandia National Laboratories is charged by the FAA to support technology transfer, technology assessment, and technology validation. A key task facing the center is the establishment of a consistent and systematic methodology to assess the reliability of inspections through field experiments. This task is divided into three major areas: reliability of eddy current lap splice inspections at transport aircraft maintenance facilities; reliability of inspection at commuter aircraft maintenance facilities; and reliability of inspection associated with visual inspection of aircraft structural parts. Volume 2 is the second document in a series of three describing the planning, execution, and results of an eddy current inspection field experiment. This document provides a detailed description of the experimental hardware and protocols. It also describes the methodology to be used in the analysis of the data.
