Metalbasher Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Help, I\'m trying to locate some information regarding the portable urinal stations that are self-contained that would be uploaded to the acft when doing personnel drops or large number of pax for long flights. These were used so that all the pax would not have to wait to use the on acft aft urinals. If I remember correctly, they really weren\'t more than a urinal with a large splash shield and line going into a holding tank. The assembly could be strapped to the floor and then off loaded upon arrival to be dumped. It was more or less a go between when you had more pax than could use the on acft urinals but not really enough to warrant a comfort pallet. I believe it was made of plastic too. Looking for NSN, part number or manufacturer. Not sure if it is referenced in a TO or not, I do have access to the TOs, just not sure where to start looking. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loadsmith Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I did a quick search through my pubs and then looked on google....the only thing that I found is the following: the NSN numbers seem to bring up the Urinal. I believe the other numbers may be the associated parts. http://www.tpub.com/content/logistics/45/10/22/01-462-2565.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C130Hcc Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I\'m not sure about part numbers or anything, but I remember a few years ago they loaded a pallet with sort of a fancy port-a-jon attached. It was pretty nice until we were about half way to Germany and we saw the blue juice flowing down the cargo bay floor. There was a small hole in the holding tank. That was the last time I saw the portable jon. - Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 if i remember that was a comfort pallet used on c-141s and c-130s on major troop movements and pax runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy605 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I remember the one you used to strap to the sidewall on 141\'s, but I only ever saw the port a lav that was bolted to a platform on a 130. Always had it on the European Eagle mission..Mildenhall-Ramstein-Zaragoza-Torrejon. 64 pax and bags, plus whatever cargo you could strap in!

tinyclark Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 There is a whole lavatory that you could put on cargo aircraft referred to above, NSN 4510-01-080-5922. But I doubt that is what you are looking for. [img size=552]http://www.herkybirds.com/images/fbfiles/images/portable_lav.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalbasher Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 No I\'m not thinking of the comfort pallets that we all know of. I was able to get some more information but it doesn\'t really help. I did run across some folks that know exactly what I\'m talking about and as it turns out...it was something that was most likely fabricated at MAC/AMC\'s Queen Bee Plastic Shop (@ McGuire AFB). This was something that was small and portable, yet could be secured to the ramp or floor...made from fiberglass. The comfort pallet took up too much room for personnel drop, so this little item came up...would provide a means of relief for pax/troops without creating a line and would still accomadate a full compliment of jumpers. As I mentioned...most likely homemade with drawings...tracking them down is a different story...will check with SPOs office. Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxFE Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 We had those cans like Tiny posted. They filled up quick and then stunk like hell. We usually reserved it for ladies and guys instead of the honey bucket. I used it twice in 18 years and it reminded me of the lav in back of a Greyhound.
