  1. 1505's were still issued when my buddy went to basic in May of 75 but were not when I went in Sept 75. I think you could still wear them through late in 1976.
  2. Congress enacted this to start in January of 2008. You have to deploy for at least 90 days to qualify for 90 days early retirement.
  3. Had a similar incident happen to a Pittsburgh H model '86-0419' at Roosevelt Roads. If I remember correctly, the front right main strut came apart hanging by the torque strut from the aft gear. Gear collapsed when they landed and threw parts of number 4 prop through the fuselage. Nobody hurt but lots of damage.
  4. Dan...Remodeling house next door for use as a rental unit\ retirement income. I like the way the trim is done below the window. Was there a panel in the frame below the window?
  5. Can anyone tell me the difference between the 74 Dyess Hercs and the ones the Reserves started getting in 78? Externally they look the same. Thanks in advance........Dave in western PA
  6. It is tail 86-0412, former Pittsburgh airframe now assigned to the 440th at Bragg/Pope.
  7. 440th Air Wing is setting up shop now and does have some maintenance in place. Had a Pope Brag C-130 at Pittsburgh the other day to drop off aircrews to pick up some airplanes for reassignment.
  8. I have a question on the 3 bladed prop. What was the diameter of the prop and did it run a the same speed and torque as the 4 blade model?
