Key Takeaways:

Cracks and leaks are common failure modes in aircraft exhaust systems, frequently observed in pipes, welds, and flanges.
Structural integrity issues, including defective welds, disengaged components, and missing parts, are reported across various aircraft models.
Exhaust components, particularly those under high heat and pressure (e.g., turbocharger feeds), are susceptible to material degradation such as blistering and pitting.
