Shown here is the application of Acoustography for ultrasonic inspection of a complex airplane part (see picture of real specimen).  The disbonds in the joint between the base and T-shaped subassembly were easily detected as dark regions (A).  Note the horizontal dark band (B) is the projected image of the vertical part of the T-shaped subassembly.  

Acoustography was also able to provide a simple way to inspect the vertical part of the T-shaped subassembly shown in the video clip below.
