<title>PROJECTS - Using holography to reduce aircraft costs</title>
<description><![CDATA[The increasing use of composites sandwich and lightweight structures and parts in new airplanes means that testing techniques that do not compromise the integrity of these components are needed Holograms and thermal imaging are often used in this way but the FANTOM project led by coordinator Marc Georges has designed an ingenious way to combine these two methods]]></description>
