    Intergranular corrosion is the most severe type of corrosion because it occurs along the grain boundaries of a material, making it difficult to detect without nondestructive testing. This type of corrosion weakens the material and can lead to sudden failure or structural damage. It is particularly challenging to identify because it often occurs beneath the surface, making it invisible to the naked eye. Nondestructive tests, such as ultrasonic testing or dye penetrant inspection, are necessary to detect intergranular corrosion and prevent further damage.

    (026) Under ideal conditions, an aircraft is operationally ready when

    • The aircraft forms are checked

    • It is released by production scheduling

    • All minor discrepancies are complete

    • The required inspection and servicing are complete

    Correct Answer
    A. The required inspection and servicing are complete
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "the required inspection and servicing are complete." This means that for an aircraft to be operationally ready, it must have undergone the necessary inspection and servicing procedures. This ensures that the aircraft is in proper working condition and meets all safety and operational requirements. Checking the aircraft forms, being released by production scheduling, and completing minor discrepancies are also important steps, but they do not guarantee that the inspection and servicing have been done. Therefore, the completion of the required inspection and servicing is the most crucial factor in determining the aircraft's operational readiness.

    (023) Corrosion or deterioration of a metal part continues until the part is

    • Painted

    • Heat treated

    • Chemically treated

    • Exhausted or salvaged

    Correct Answer
    A. Exhausted or salvaged
    Explanation
    Corrosion or deterioration of a metal part continues until the part is exhausted or salvaged. This means that the corrosion will continue until the metal part is completely worn out or until it is salvaged, which involves repairing or restoring the part to its original condition. Painting, heat treating, and chemically treating the part may help prevent or slow down corrosion, but they do not stop the deterioration completely.
