Tried this on the historical forum and wasn't deluged with answers, hoping for more here: Did the Air Force replace the APN-59 with the APN-161? If so when and on starting with which CN? Thanks, dave

This may sound like a dumb question, but I'd like to make sure. Are there any H2s left out there without GCUs? Thanks

G'day, Was just trying to work out the rudder diverter valve a little. I know it is solenoid operated. But in what position is it when power is taken away from it? (Full pressure or the lower 1275) and what position would it fail in? If its full pressure is there any thing the crew would need to keep in mind while flying with full rudder pressure? Thanks for the help in advance.

OK, Loadmasters, stupid pilot question about the treadways. Keep in mind memory has served too many times as a beer filter, reducing capacity, but don't remember treadways being marked on floor. If load looked like it wouldn't fall on treadways, did you measure them (If so, from where) or just throw shoring down? Dave

I got some guys downrange with a Talon II and they can't get the Mission computers to come online. They worked fine during the -1, but now they won't power up. The VDT's give vertical lines, so they are turning on, but the MC's still won't come on. Tried with 2 power carts and APU with bus tied. Still no go. Any ideas?

A few years back I read something about how the plastic chocks were not rated for the C-130 for power runs but I can't find it anywhere now. It was some TO that had aircraft parking and mooring and a bunch of other stuff. I tried finding it today but had no success whatsoever... I thought that it was in the 1-1A-17 or 00-25-??? TO but I just can't find it anywhere.

Navy guy trying to learn the Air Force way of life... What in the world is a Level 7?

OK as you know, by real world experience is the P-3 Orion, and work Final Assembly on the "J" model at LM... So I'm Navy, and my grasp of the Air Force way of doing things is a tad off. LOL Any way In this THREAD the question of missing camlocs is the topic. Several references were to a LEVEL 7 making the call. What in the world is a Level 7??? My guess it would be the same as a QAR in the Navy. Can someone explain the types of inspectors the Air Force has??? In the Navy there are 3 different types of inspectors, they are as follows: CDI (Collateral Duty Inspector) Normal E-5 / E-6 (and a few shit hot E-4's) These guys/gals worked in the shop, turned wr…

Goodday to y'all forummers, my squadron is a user of the Lockheed C-130 Hercules Cargo Winch. Recently there's a Special Occurence Report (SOR) regarding the cargo winch give way causing the load to roll down the ramp and hit the aft fuselage causing a tear. I'm in the process of investigating this incident trying to determine whether it was the cargo winch failure or there's a mistake in the loading procedure. The senario while the cargo winch is as follows: 1. Loadmaster 1 (L1) operated the cargo winch while Loadmaster 2 (L2) observed the loading of the cargo and gives instructions to L1. 2. The load is a tri-wheel hydraulic cart requiring a cable pull of approx …

Hello all, I'm new here! On a KC-130T, after replacing filters on all systems on cycle, we noticed a weird noise on the upside while cycling the flaps. Flap movement is smooth at the motor AND the physical surface itself, and the T-Handle has been pushed in and verified with free movement of the nipple, but it makes a weird noise. It sounds almost like a trumpet and a pig squealing at the same time. Its only on the upside and it did it first at 40% flaps, then 30%, then 20% then stopped, then againt a 20% and it continues for a few seconds AFTER the flaps have stopped moving when doing a full cycle from 100% to 0%. This is will all engines running. Any ideas? Maybe th…

A question came up around the squadron the other day. Let’s say we have five CDS bundles loaded, but we’re only going to drop two on this pass. When we choose the CDS flap setting, do we use the column for 5 bundles or 2? The numbers aren’t important. The question really is… Do we use the number of bundles loaded or to be dropped? Most importantly, why? Keep in mind, looking at the CDS Flap setting chart, more bundles require additional flaps. This means that more bundles require a lower deck angle. I have my own opinions on these, but I’ll keep them to myself so I don’t bias the responses.

we have a problemon an ac-130h that we have been unable to solve for a while. when you have any power source on but our atm generator the aux pump will come online fine, if the aux is already running the atm will run with no problem but if you have ATM online when you turn on aux pump it drops down to 350 htz and goes off line we have changed almost all components that apply. currently we are changing our aux pump relay due to our supervision the only thing that is strange is that we are getting 30 ampres higher than our other aircraft if anyone has any tricks that would help us please let me know

ENGINE START 1 2

Afternoon, I was wondering if you guys could help me out. During the ENGINE START procedure, the Pilot will state "Turning". When should the Pilot state "Turning"? On our FM, we have the following Caution : "If the propeller does not rotate within 5 seconds after the ENGINE GROUND START switch is placed in START and the start valve open light is illuminated, stop start. Maintenance action is required prior to another start attempt. Repeated attempts to start may result in internal starter damage" We also have the following statement : "The loadmaster will monitor the propeller. If no rotation is observed within 5 seconds after the pilot states, “Turni…

I know the 1C-130H-2-21JG-10-1 states that the Engine Pressure Regulator must indicate between 38 and 52 PSI, or between 70 and 74 PSI for AC-130U airplanes, or between 56 and 70 PSI for MC-130E/H/W airplanes in the "ON" position, but what does the -1 Flight Manual mandate? Looking for an agreement (or disagreement) between the maintenance manual and the flight manual. Thanks.

Does anyone know where i can find the written procedure for jacking. we have a new Capt. that would like to know what kinds of surface you can jack on (concrete, asphalt,"temporary metal matting" (i know thats a def NO), the maximum slope angle (as i understand it, it needs to be a flat solid surface.) If anyone can provide any assistance in this it would be helpful. We've looked in the job guide, the 91-100, 21-101, 1c-130A-3...nothing

We have aircraft 61-2358 that we are troubleshooting a door problem. It had been modded with dual door actuators. After some diggin we discovered this aircraft was modded to a jc-130. Does anyone know who I can get in touch with to get some hydraulic schematics for this mod or a parts breakdown to confirm that part numbers for some flow restrictors that are currently installed. We have been going off of the MC-130 breakdowns but the pipping doesn't match what is actually in the aircraft.

I recently got a few close up shots of Herc 742134, a C130H-LM out of Dyess, assigned to AMC. As is visible in the attached photo, there are a number of pieces sticking out from the side of the a/c (possibly antennas of some kind?), including the landing gear doors. Can someone tell me what they are for. Also, does the suffix LM stand for Lockheed Martin or something else. Thanks Gary Hebbard
