86th Maintenance Squadron’s NDI Shop inspects to protect

U.S. Air Force Airman Samuel Mulleavey, 86th Maintenance Squadron Non-Destructive Inspection apprentice, inspects a ferromagnetic wheel at Ramstein Air Base, Germany, April 7, 2026. The presence of a surface or subsurface discontinuity in the material allows the magnetic flux to leak, since air cannot support as much magnetic field per unit volume as metals.
