With mottos like “Quality first. Safety always” and “Doing It Right“ AAR Corp is always looking for ways to improve aviation safety and maintenance procedures. Their latest safety measure is to provide all employees with FOD (Foreign Object Debris) bags for easy collection of FOD produced during maintenance tasks. As an initial test, FOD bags were distributed to 10 AAR Corp team members to check if the bags fit AAR Corp requirements. After completing the evaluation, AAR Corp has placed an order of 800 FOD Bags from TheCanKey, FOD free products.
Ben Macre at AAR Corp says: “Our intention is to have every employee wear one (TheCanKey FOD Bag) as part of their uniform.”
