| Description | The flight-service experience of 110 graphite-epoxy spoilers on 737 transport aircraft and related ground-based environmental exposure of graphite-epoxy material specimens is reported. Spoilers were installed on each of 27 aircraft representing seven major airlines operating throughout the world. Based on visual, ultrasonic, and destructive testing, there is no evidence of moisture migration into the honeycomb core and no core corrosion. Tests of removed spoilers and of ground-based exposure specimens after the second year of service indicate modest changes in composite strength. |
