Abstract:

In an effort to better control Foreign Object Debris/Damage (FOD) and minimize the hazards associated with FOD on the air operations area, many airports have developed comprehensive FOD management programs, beginning with FOD inspections. In general, FOD inspections range from a simple visual inspection to continuous monitoring technologies. This synthesis report details the components of a comprehensive FOD management program, and compiles current practices, techniques, and lists of tools available for use, or those currently being used, by airports for FOD inspections.
