Composite non-destructive inspection & repair

Inspection strategy and qualified repair guidance for composite airframe structures — with an emphasis on quality, safety, and the documentation review authorities expect to see.

Inspection planning

  • Method selection. Match technique — ultrasonic, thermography, tap testing, X-ray — to defect type, part geometry, and access.
  • Coverage strategy. Where to look, how often, and what a call-out actually means for the structure.
  • Acceptance criteria. Defect maps traceable back to structural analysis and residual strength.

Damage assessment & repair

  • Damage size, type, and location characterization.
  • Repair engineering — scarf, doubler, or replacement decision with margin justification.
  • Return-to-service documentation for review authorities.
  • Root-cause framing so a repair doesn't become a recurring finding.

Why it matters

A composite airframe is only as trustworthy as the inspection and repair record behind it. RMD keeps that record clean, defensible, and aligned with the structural analysis.
