I am a medically retired Marine that is working on a book, that uses a Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules as a primary method of transportation for a special operations team. Despite having ridden in, and jumped out of, quite a few C-130's I know enough to know, that I don't know anything about them! Obviously, I am trying to portray the use of the plane and its components in the most accurate light possible, and have some small questions that are honestly probably too unimportant to post here. So, if anyone out there has experience with the model, and wouldn't mind talking shop with someone that knows absolutely nothing about the subject... please mess…

We are currently battling a rudder boost deflection issue on the booster system when in full rudder booster (flaps extended to 50%). During operation of the rudder, pressure deflects down to 2750ish but does recover to 2900. Crew says it must stay in range the whole time. We have changed diverter valve, transmitter, gauge, check valve, and even swapped the snubbers to utility (that shows no deflection) and the problem does not follow. When elevator is pulled off the stops, the deflection only goes from 2900 to 2800 but crew still refuses the aircraft. The aircraft is an 88 H2 model. Thoughts anyone? Boost pack - rudder, elevator, anything else??? Thanks

I am working on a 130J which is converted to a maintenance trainer. after the ramp was lowered to ADS position i found the manual dial set at #5. the ramp locks are extended with the ramp open. I am unable to retract the locks manually. setting the dial at #1 will raise the ramp but will not disengage the locks. basically i am unable to close the ramp. note: that the Elect/HYD function from the Aux pump has been disabled due to our tear-down process. Any ideas would be appreciated. Note: Fault isolation manuals states to replace the manifold.

Hello, I'm an engineer working on Pallet Loaders/K-Loaders. I want to understand about the cargo loading and unloading procedures, specifically the use of Pallet Loaders and forklifts. When is a pallet loader used and when is a forklift used? Pallet loaders can only provide a horizontal movement of the pallets from and to the aircraft. Since forklifts are required for the vertical movement from and to the dunnage, then why not directly use a forklift to unload the aircraft, one pallet at a time. Thanks in advance for the help.

Good day to you all, I would like to ask the forum for some technical help. I sale a product for cleaning landing gear struts call Strutwipe. It's a 100% lint free tightly woven cotton wipe that is saturated with either MIL-PRF-5606 or MIL-PRF-83282. When I worked for Lockheed back in the 90's, we would use 5606 for the struts. My question to the forum does the newer model C130 still use 5606 or have the struts been upgraded to 83282? Thanks for any help in advance. Best, Mark A&P and Owner of Strutwipe www.strutwipe.com

I have an old 501D13, (T56) built in 1954. We use it to pull air through a wind tunnel. I had to swap it out with an engine that was sitting in an engine can for 5 years. The new engine is giving me hot starts and high fuel flow at ground idle. I checked and rechecked the rigging. Swapped the TD valve and fuel control. This engine is unique, it does not have a TD amp, or TD control. Any ideas at what else I can look at or swap out to see if I can get this problem fixed? Its a difficult problem to diagnose because its run by a computer using a PLC.

Does anyone know if the P-3's use the exact same props as the Herc? Basically, are they the same diameter? They look a little smaller. Thanks.
