The paper presents the results of experimental studies into the application of supersonic particle deposition (SPD) for repairing and enhancing the airworthiness and integrity of aging aircraft structures. Presented are the results of coupon tests on the application of SPD doublers to mechanically fastened joints and to simulated corrosion damage tested under constant amplitude fatigue loads. These successful tests are then supported by an application to an F/A-18 Hornet wing attachment centre barrel laboratory test article.
