The application to aircraft power plants of a well proven laboratory control program previously applied to terrestrial bound power plants will be discussed. The program incorporates physical tests and spectrometric analyses of lubricants and a new technique using spectrometric analyses of jet turbine engine exhaust deposits. Examples of the successful application of the program by the maintenance forces concerned with reciprocating engines and jet engines will be given.
