    I keep thinking it’s FOD (foreign object damage) which is why you don’t want small, hard objects on a runway or something. Stuff like bullet casings can get sucked into a jet engine, and cause FOD that takes a plane out of service.

    Then I notice that FOD doesn’t make any sense in context, reread the sentence, and realize it’s FUD. Whoops.
