Before an airplane is assembled, its components must be manufactured and shipped to the assembly plant and sometimes stored. This critical period can lead to the uneventful arrival and installation of a propeller or engine, or it can lead to headaches and setbacks from corroded components. Cortec® Corporation encourages man-ufacturers to take the first option by choosing a simple but effective packaging strategy based on Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors. Corrosion Dangers During Shipping and Storage Shipping and storage are vulnerable times for aircraft components, especially when they take place in a hot, humid environment or undergo fluctuating temperatures during export.…
