Researchers have found that there is not an adequate forum for U.S. military FOD program managers to share information and help raise awareness. The study, conducted by the U.S. Air Force Laboratory at Wright Paterson Air Force Base, concluded that effective FOD prevention results from a combination of good equipment, training and awareness
It called for the development of mechanisms to improve communication between FOD program operators.
In response, FODNews.com has relaunched its’ discussion group on this website. The interactive forum enables military and civilian aviation personnel to exchange information, ask questions, and share best practices.
