Title: Explain the process of corrosion and its effect on aviation technology.
Course: Aviation Maintenance Technology II (20114-II) > Section: Exploring the Effects of Cleaning and Corrosion

Explanation should include the fact that corrosion will cause primary structural members in an aircraft to weaken or fail. If undetected early through inspection and properly treated, corroded structures in an aircraft will require reinforcement or replacement for the aircraft to sustain the loads and stress for which each part is designed.
