    NDT requirement for dimpled skin...

    Hi guys, I am currently replacing a C-130 side skin panel made of 2024-T3 0.050. It has to be dimpled for MS20426AD5's and NAS 517-3's. The hot dimpler we're using isn't exactly flash, the upper die heater doesn't work, resulting in dodgy dimples. Should I get NDT to check these dimples? Thanks.
