Good Morning
Hollis,
My name is
Dennis Berndt, I'm an instructor and radiation safety
officer at
Ridgewater College Nondestructive Testing Department in
Hutchinson
Minnesota. Ridgewater College is part of the Minnesota
State College
System and we offer a two year nondestructive testing
degree designed
to take new students and prepare them as entry level
NDT technicians.
Recently reviewed Mr William Meades article on "Radiography
Enters the
Digital Age"
in the January 2004 TNT publication.
Great Job! His
article does
a good comparison and is well written.
I would like
permission
to reproduce this article and include it as required reading
in our advanced
radiography training program. In
this section of our
training program
students use realtime, film
, and computed
radiography
to inspect several aircraft part and do a summary comparing
sensitivity
of each method. This article
would be good information
reading prior
to the completion the actual inspection.
I would like to
photo copy
the first three pages of your publication
and include it in
the reference
material each student receives.
We would be making
approximately
thirty copies per year.
Thanks you
for your time,
Dennis Berndt
