This SAE Aerospace Standard defines the requirements for establishing a Nondestructive Inspection (NDI) program for aerospace systems to include but not not be limited to aircraft structure, aircraft stores (external structures such as antennas, pods, fuel tanks, weapons, radomes, etc.) and missile/rocket structural components when an NDI Program Plan is required by contract. NDI Programs are essential to ensuring NDI processes are implemented to support the lifecycle design requirements of the system and its components. NDI Programs are applicable to all phases of the system life cycle, including acquisition, modification, and sustainment. This standard may also be applicable to mechanical equipment, subsystems, and propulsion systems, but the requirements defined by the NDI Program Plan should be tailored by the contracting agency for such use.

This specification covers procedures for ultrasonic immersion inspection of premium grade wrought titanium and titanium alloy round billet 5 inches (127 mm) and over in nominal diameter (see 8.5). Metal alloy billets other than titanium may be tested to this specification with the use of suitable reference standards.
Long wave ultraviolet or UV-A radiation (between 320 59 400nm) is used for fluorescent inspections in magnetic particle and liquid penetrant examinations. The UV-A radiationn is obtained from either fluorescent or high intensity discharge lamps that are stationary or portable. The commercially available UV-A lamps possess a large variation in intensity output that can cause a legitimate concern for possible health hazard. This draft reviews the nature of UV-A radiation emitted by these lights, blacklight equipment, acceptable UV dosage limits adopted by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) and European Standards Committee for Nondestructive Testing, and recommendation of proper practices when working with UV-A radiation.
This specification details requirements and procedures for the detection of defects in aircraft structural and engine components during maintenance and overhaul operations.
This specification covers the procedure for ultrasonic inspection of flat, contoured, round, and hollow cylindrical products having a cross-sectional thickness of 0.02 to 0.50 inch (0.5 to 12.7 mm). This specification does not apply to inspection of composite materials.
This recommended practice establishes the requirements and procedures for Barkhausen Noise (BN) inspection of ferromagnetic steel components. Applications of the method are listed in 1.2 through 1.5.
This specification establishes the classification, technical requirements, tests, and test procedures for the qualification, approval, and quality verification of all materials used in the liquid penetrant methods of inspection with the exception of those excluded in the application section.
