Here is the info form the Lockheed Service News mags on the history of the outer wing, melded into one pdf file by some dude who likes adobe 8 pro.
-
Here's the first page of the TCTO.
-
There is no requirement on the drawing to mark them with that info.
-
Steve, this is out of the old T.O. B-2-5, and reflects the same info in the new books, and on all the H-1s, Es and now HCs I work on.

Got chrome? Or at least, any left?

It is BS. I saw one black A/C at Ramstein during my six years there, for one day. I guess they never did any pre, post, thru, HSC or ISO inspections on it. Must have been a CNN news reporter.

UM, the wings installed during TCTO 1039 DO HAVE externally mounted fuel probes. They are 3-3/4" across and have 4 screws in them. The information label for the wing should be on the training edge around OWS 180.

AIR FORCE PILOT MIA FROM VIETNAM WAR IS IDENTIFIED

Another reason why I consider the Gunship the most effective modern weapon. -
My hat's off

The problem appears to be fixed, but they changed all 4 transducers, the valves, the wiring... so we really don't know what fixed it.

You should be able to order NSN 1560-00-659-1367. This would be the -3 assembly, which includes the -4 seal and -7 seal. The -7 is just a foam tube that slides into the -4 seal. This creates a stiffer and tighter fit.

It's not out of a book, it's the production install drawing (370123) of the truss mounts.

I know what an AFI 11-201 is, but never heard of ALSCOM.
-
If this is the sway brace y'all are talking about, the install drawing shows sealant.
-
The main reason it is flying is Tim Martin. He went through all the diagrams, checked the aircraft, and found many, many problems. I minorly assisted him with this, and it was one hell of a project. I'm so glad they didn't do all the other aircraft they were supposed to do. One klusterf*<h was enough. BTW, I worked on Frankenherk, 64-0539, quite a bit. I prefer to call 1863 Frankentanker.

This is all I found in the Navy T.O. Funny thing is that there is a repair that can be done. The replacement part is aluminum bronze, according to FEDLOG. No drawing for it in JEDMICS.
-
It means it's on the wishlist but unfunded, like replacing the vacuum tube ADF is/was.
-
We really haven't seen it hands on either. I don't think it's an antiskid issue myself. I still wonder if there's a possibilty of rotor warp, but kind of hard to believe with multiple discs. They don't want to taxi it to troubelshoot right now. I doubt they'll even think about it capping off one brake at a time. Maybe in an ideal world...

Skip, that's IED Location Engineer. Remember, this is the kindler, gentler, more politically correct Air Force.

A/P would disconnect when the yoke was moved to counteract it.
-
As Bob said, the only HC-130P that has UARRSI is an old ABCCC airframe, 62-1863. This aircraft is in a 64 model configuration now. A total of 6 were supposed to be converted, but that didn't happen due to funding. It's a good thing too, that aircraft was AFU as far as system wiring was concerned.
-
That's an older Navy part, according to FEDLOG. CANCELLED NIIN: 1610006287116 Status Code: 8 - ITEM IS CANCELLED-INACTIVE I can't find any more info on it, and I certainly wouldn't use it.
-
I though the idea of JPADS was supposed to keep the C130 out of small arms fire harm. Why fly em in low, unless they are Talons?
-
Funny you should mention that, same crew wrote it up the last two times. R-squaring the crew is not possible.
