Currently having an issue on a 92 model 2.5 that I haven’t been able to crack. When engaging altitude hold on either side, the horizontal command bars float around 5 degrees up. No LRU swap/r2 has fixed the issue and after shooting wires between ADC’s, flight computers, mode selectors, mode couplers, and yaw damper everything checks as advertised. Also have tried SCNS relays. It does it in all flight director modes. If anyone has come across this problem I would love some help. The issue has been on and off for the last 5 months. thanks everyone

hi. Recently, an oil filter defect occurred in one engine continuously. I checked the filter and checked it out and found that the filter and support were purple. All the filters in the whole line were purple. Have you ever experienced this?

KC-130T buno 313 and up, Having an issue where the CARA will lose altitude intermittently while in flight. Sometimes it will happen on takeoff or descent other times it will happen while cruising. (Aircrew will sometimes associate it with nav select switching but cannot be duplicated) CARA will fluctuate under 50 feet while airborne causing GPWS to go off for low altitude sometimes resetting the breaker will return it to normal other times if terrain changes it will return to normal on its own. Have replaced pilots indicator, CARA R/T and antennas but gripe still remains. Also I have shot the cables with a TDR and they seem normal. Any insight would be greatly apprec…

In the c130j aux sys when you turn off the aux pump pres is trapped in brakes, between check valve and brake control valve on one side and the check valve and brake selector valve on other side. But where does the pressure before going into the brake check valves bleed off at? For booster sys you have to move the flight controls because pres is trapped and for util sys you have to move flight controls and bleed brakes because pres is trapped, but why isn't pres trapped in aux? Where does it go? When using the hand pump pres bleeds off, you can see it in the direct reading gauge going down, but it stays in the brakes. Where is the pres bleeding off at?

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…
