Universal FOD Control Program

The Universal FOD (Foreign Object Debris) Control Program is a safety routine used in aviation and aerospace to prevent small objects such as tools, parts, or debris from damaging aircraft. It involves systematic inspection, cleaning, and handling procedures to keep runways, hangars, and aircraft surfaces free of foreign objects. The goal is to reduce the risk of accidents or equipment damage caused by debris that can be ingested into engines or impact critical components, ensuring safer operations for aircraft and personnel.
