Thermographic survey ![]() Good shot of the STBD side, Clearly showing the frames and longitudinals. ![]() Shot from aft looking fwd, clealry showing the extent of the damaged area. ![]() An internal shot, identifying an area of discontinuity in the GRP, ontop of the egg box structure. Unlikley that this are would have been examined in a tap test; however damage is clearly evident in this image. |

interesting! What are your next steps based on this? And as I assume the measurement is related to misture in the laminaten, I think it is not applicatie to check for corrosion under mastfittings? |

It picks up changes in density of material; so if there is moisture in the GRP it will show this; equally it will show if there is delamination, ie air, in the GRP. Not sure how well it will work on metal; worth researching.
