NDI inspects to save lives

Tech. Sgt. Christopher Thompson, 18th Equipment Maintenance Squadron nondestructive inspection technician, inspects a series of X-ray photos of aircraft structural components at Kadena’s NDI lab, May 11. Using X-rays allows the technicians to inspect the pieces to check for cracks beneath the surface that could potentially lead to catastrophic damage for the aircraft or the crew onboard.
