How to Implement an Effective FOD Prevention Program

Foreign object damage (FOD) is a severe threat to the safe operation of aircraft. FOD can occur when objects are ingested into engines or other systems, damaging critical components. Even small pieces of debris can cause significant damage, and the costs of repairs can be very high. FOD prevention programs are essential for Aerospace companies, as they help to reduce the risk of FOD occurring. FOD prevention programs typically involve measures such as regular cleaning and inspection of aircraft, as well as the use of FOD detection devices. These programs help to reduce the likelihood of FOD occurring, and they can also save Aerospace companies significant amounts of money in repairs and downtime.
