Air Force Aircraft Painting and Corrosion Control.
Abstract
This report summarizes our audit of Air Force aircraft corrosion control with emphasis on aircraft painting and paint removal. It is the final Air Force report in a series of reports that resulted from our DoD-wide Audit of Aircraft Paint Application and Removal Capabilities. Other reports resulting from audit discussed the repainting of the C-5 aircraft and construction of a plastic media blasting facility at Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas. The Air Force spends approximately $1 billion a year on its aircraft corrosion control program. Corrosion control costs include both corrosion repair and preventive corrosion maintenance.
