neutral  B D Finch: It is testing for cracks, but I don't think that specifically applies to the fuel tank. Those are two separate points in the source text.

agree  Platary (X): Je pense bien qu'il s'agit de cela en effet !

neutral  Tony M: Like BDF, I think this is 2 separate things: especially as it talks about a 'fuel bag tank', in which I'd have thought cracks were unlikely.

contrôle par ressuage


Explanation:
...réalisé par un laboratoire agréé

It seems likely this is about non-destructive testing (logically!), and I believe dye penetrant testing is the commonest method used.

disagree  B D Finch: This is only one of a number of NDT methods and if the source text is non-specific, the translation should be too.

  -> Thanks, B! Very true: although I did find some instances of this specifically relating to this particular context...

Reference: Of very few mentions on the 'Net...

Reference information:
...this one seems to use the term without any reference to fuel tanks, seemingly corroborating BDF's idea that they are in fact 2 entirely separate things:

Again, this ref. seems to make it clear this is something quite different; and the mention of NDT makes me think this is about dye penetration testing:

Ken Gillanders is taking a batch of axles to a airframe certified crack-testing shop. He also has some ideas about polishing, peening and then heat-treating.
