The ability to detect and/or monitor corrosion of structural aircraft components, located in difficult-to-access areas, may contribute to a significant reduction in annual maintenance expenditures. Reductions can be achieved in the frequency of major overhauls, corrosion inspection, and unanticipated structural rework/repairs. Existing systems and new developments for monitoring corrosion of components in these areas are discussed.
