        Crash:  right wing broke in severe turbulence at low level 15 kms north of Magdalena, MN

The aircraft was assigned to the 1550CCTW at Kirtland AFB, New Mexico. It had 11 crew members to include 4 PJ's that lost there lives.

The aircraft was on a low level training mission and entered a canyon route that opened into a split canyon and hit severe turbulence, the right wing failed just inboard of the #4 engine. The aircraft rolled over on it back and impacted the ground about 1/4 mile down the canyon. The wing was found by myself and 2 Warner Robins engineers and at that point the entire C130 fleet was grounded on 7 April 986 to inspect all the dry bays trusses and wing boxes. This accident accelerated the 1039 outerwing swap TCTO.
