Teen solves centuries-old math problem
TULSA, Okla., Nov. 18 (UPI) -- The U.S. Air Force has received a wing inspection system from Veracity Technology Solutions designed to reduce downtime for aircraft.
U.S. company Veracity announced it has delivered non-destructive inspection units to Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma. The technology is part of an effort to improve aft wing inspections capabilities.
Veracity says its customized inspection units reduce KC-135 aircraft downtime by more effectively locating cracks while also providing a safer work environment for Air Force personnel.
"We are pleased that we had the opportunity to work with the government to improve this inspection process," Gary Hensley, Veracity president, said in a statement.
"Technicians have qualified and validated the Veracity solution and based on the results, this technology will not only save a significant amount of money, but the aircraft will be back in service faster -- and with the high operational tempo of our military, that's critical."
