Abstract
An apparatus and method for using the same to inspect the interior of a construction such as a vessel, piping, machinery and the like, including jet engine combustion cans, comprises a fiberscope having a probe carrying fiberoptic systems which is inserted into the construction interior through an articulable and rotatable guide insertion tube. The guide insertion tube is articulated and/or rotated to manipulate the fiberscope probe and aim it toward a passage into an adjacent interior section. Once the fiberscope probe is extended out of the guide insertion tube and into the next interior section, it acts as a lead wire over which the guide insertion tube in pushed to extend the guide insertion tube into the next section, and so forth for the desired number of interior sections.
