Abstract:
This paper describes corrosion control practices used in Boeing commercial aircraft.

This has resulted in significant improvements in corrosion control practices in today's aircraft. Included are discussions on processing/finishing of metals, the joining of dissimilar materials, sealing practices and drainage management
