PS readers in the aviation community,

When it comes to foreign object debris (FOD) and foreign object damage (FOD), there’s a very informative article on Pages 7-10 of the October 2019 issue of
Flightfax.  The story gives great information about FOD and covers housekeeping, tool control, loose hardware, aircraft covers, personal property, FOD walks, FOD prevention and more. This article will help your unit’s FOD Prevention Program. For your convenience, we’ve attached a copy. Simply click on the Related Documents link (underneath the Share and Print icons below) to download it.
