Editor's Notes
- #4 Overview: For Nigeria to increase the standard of its Aviation industry, Nigeria must employ an advanced system that prevents accidents that may be caused by Foreign Object Debris (FOD).
- #5 Airport operation area.A: FOD Potential Danger.On November 14, 2008. According to the U.S. Air Force "..If that rock makes it to that jet engine there goes a million dollars, there is the possibility of people dying or of aircraft not being able to perform their mission.'"..."We have a lot of aircraft that are very susceptible to FOD; many with engines close to the ground or that have high-intake velocities. It's critical to keep the runways clean.“Slide 4 B:On September 24, 2009. According to the Chicago Tribune “The safety breaches, uncovered by the Federal Aviation Administration during routine inspections last month at O’Hare, range from debris on runways... An object as small as a stone on a runway can pose a danger to flight by being ingested into aircraft jet turbines or piercing a fuel tank and sparking an explosion and fire. Yet FAA inspectors found rocks, garbage and wood survey stakes used during construction on runways and taxiways at O’Hare”Slide 4 COn October 24, 2009. According to Greenville news “Federal aviation authorities said Sunday they are investigating a United Express flight that had tire trouble while taxiing to the runway at Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport...The deflation was attributed to “foreign object debris,” which could include a bag tag or a fork from a catering business...”
