Establishes the minimum requirements for the qualifications and approval of personnel involved in non-destructive testing (NDT), for the aerospace industry.
Scope
This Standard establishes the minimum requirements for the qualifications and approval of personnel involved in non-destructive testing (NDT). These requirements include training, experience and examination for people performing NDT in the aerospace manufacturing, service, maintenance and overhaul industries.
This Standard is not intended to apply to individuals who have only administrative authority over the personnel identified above, nor does it apply to research personnel developing technology for subsequent approval by a certified Level 3.
Individuals currently certified in accordance with either NAS 410 and EN 4179 may have their current approval period extended to the maximum limits defined in Clause 8 of this Standard. Personnel do not need to recertify to the requirements of this Standard until their current or extended approval expires.
NOTE: In Europe, the word ‘certification’ may only be used when the certification process complies with the requirements of ISO/IEC 17024 and the term ‘approval’ would be used to denote a written statement by an employer that an individual has met specific requirements.
