Airlines for America announced that the 2025 Nondestructive Testing Forum will be held in Fort Worth from September 22 to 25. The announcement was made in a post on X on April 9.
According to Airlines for America (A4A), the annual Nondestructive Testing (NDT) Forum is a key event focused on aircraft maintenance and safety through innovative inspection methods. The forum brings together professionals from airlines, equipment manufacturers, regulatory agencies, and Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) organizations to share updates on NDT technologies and best practices. It plays a crucial role in advancing standards and fostering collaboration across the aviation maintenance industry.
The 2025 A4A NDT Forum will take place at the Sheraton Fort Worth Downtown Hotel. The event will feature technical sessions, a supplier exhibit hall, and professional development opportunities, including American Society for Nondestructive Testing (ASNT) Level III recertification points. Each technical session contributes to the ASNT point system, allowing participants to earn one point for every three hours of attendance.
A4A has opened a call for papers for the 2025 forum, inviting presentations on all aspects of nondestructive testing. Accepted presenters will be given 20 minutes to share insights, followed by a Q&A session. This initiative allows industry experts, including airline personnel and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), to contribute cutting-edge research and practical findings to the aviation NDT community.
