This is one of the reasons we never trimmed the ends of cut wire when we tied bolts down. We just twisted them and bent them inward. No excess cuts needed, and no tiny bits of FOD that you have to dig out.
- gorgoiler 7y agoWhat is FOD in this context?

- torgian 7y agoWe always called it "Foreign Object Damage" but yeah, "Debris" would technically be more correct. Gotta keep the FOD out of the aircraft and the flight lines!
- mveety 7y agoBoth are kind of correct. If it's laying where it shouldn't be it's debris, but if it's plowed through the windshield it's damage.
