tinyclark Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 1 cu in = .00433 gallons. measure it out, subtract a little for the rounded corners, and that will give you a rough guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do have something like that for the Beechjet and working on the same for the Hawker 750 :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff Millen Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Just why would the volume if the sink be important? Just for kicks....been off the Herk for a lot of years...do they have microwave ovens in any of the models? Muff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I only worked on the "A,s" no galley. What do you mean no galley on the A model? Have you for gotten the hot cup? Cooked a lot of soup in them, had the crews asking me to share . Realy like to fix French Onion Soup in them. Made every one hungry.:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Railrunner130 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I think they switched to microwaves sometime in the early 90's birds. About the time of the H3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinner Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 1994 model H3s and above have microwaves. Still not as good as the old convection oven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff Millen Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I remember one time we went to a small island of the south of Korea...Chedo (sp) and picked up some "brass" who had been there for a conferance yea right! Well the loadmaster "aquired" a pheasant all cleaned and defeathered and put it in the oven shortly after take-oof to Clark...by the time we got to Clark there was a great smell of cooked pheasant in the whole plane and after the downloading of pax and their baggage we sat on the open ramp and shared the great tasting "aquired" baked pheasant. Oh for the good old days....{:-)) Muff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff Millen Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Oh, yea I for got that we now have the distaff as crew members. Tell me what/where does the male loadmaster do when a lady crew member has to pee? I can see it now....pull down curtain, remove flight suit, etc....does the first to use the honey bucket still have to dump it? Muff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It went like this: a couple of the girls used to cut the bottom end off a 2 liter bottle and put a small rubber hose around the jagged lip of the bottle, press up and use it that way. when finished it the bottle was poured out of the urinal. One told me there was no way the she was going to be the one to break the seal on the honey bucket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleagle Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Scoobie! If you leave that cover over the galley "sink" anybody aside from Crewdogs and Maint folks won't have a clue and won't press to test. - It's up to you buddy, if it's a long haul, take care of your cargo/pax - if its just a short hop (not sure what "Fleet" is dragging out these days just let them know your time down at arrival ICAO. Once flew a "pile" of PAX for a 45min shuttle, never knew I'd get to see the launch pad for the shuttle. Headed down-range one of the PAX made it clear that she'd need the bucket. Trash mover that we were (spent all our time airdrop training) we'd either have the "modesty" curtian tied back or just clean of the overhead and stowed in a door container. History now - and it was a great break to find out one of the "PAX" was a LM so we had the curtian up in short order. After that, lets just leave it to crewdog parlance `cause it was pure amazing what a great lookin' gal "created" - kinda' like a tidal wave - had to improvise as there was no EP for this - dumped the bottle of that windex (mil version) into the bucket, tied a knot then double bagged that doober and put it in the cargo door - The Lord was on our side that day, the bag froze in short order. Still can't believe that stunning crew-lady churned out those toxins. I'll quit here - the story is "sanatized" cause there was way more drama to the day - Fleagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mt.crewchief Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 I worked/lived on both A's and E's, and I never saw either of their cooking facilities in use!!! I think that was mostly because the longest flight we ever went on was from either Naha or CCK to Cam Rahn Bay, or Bangkok. Now, I did do a little meal preparation on the MD-3!!! I do remember drinking the left-over coffee on the E-Models. I guess they were plugged in somewhere in the galley??? I do remember the galley floor--especially from the bottom side!!!
