tinyclark Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Could someone take a picture of the flushable toilet in the newer C-130s and post the pic. Also get a closer one of the flush button. I would appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC10FE Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Tiny, Took me a while to find it, but here's the one from PJ-TAC (5225) taken in 1991 in Angola. As I remember, the push button switch was opposite the hand-hold. We had to chain it closed and put a cover over it as the passengers would fill it to overflowing. No a good system for Africa. Don R.

Railrunner130 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 On our H2s, the button is below and to the left of the Warning sticker that is visible at the top center. FYI- It took be darned near forever, but I got permission to clip/hang/velcro a hand sanitizer dispenser on the right. There is also one near the urinals at 245 on the right side..

DC10FE Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Whoa look at those roller conveyors Can anybody fill me in on those? ...end thread hijack :/ Came from the factory with that cargo system. Another idea that didn't last too long in the African environment. Don R. OK back to Tiny's thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleagle Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Dang! Never got to fly on anything other than honeybucket haulers - double up the garbage bags! No fleet where we're going! (and even when the occasion where fleet was avail - the herders either ignored the call or delayed a good bit) Then came the day when one of the LM's pulled the bag out (fleet said they weren't certified) knotted the top shut then dropped into the herder truck..... I had to "exit" stage left when the first hellfire call came back into the squadron - DO was pissed and I couldn't stop laughing! Beer, its your friend!

tinyclark Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Thanks Mike, I had that. Some stuff you never get rid of. Senior, that's perfect. I never got to work or fly on anything newer than a 74 either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Wilson Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 flushable toilet? Jeeez the worlds getting soft. Oh on the fleet guys not wanting to take the honey bucket bag with them, I had no sympathy for those klowns, I did four years of driving a turd hearse to dump them commercial jons on the E3A's (still had the commercial 707 toilets back and urinal up front). Sure as anything the fittings and hoses all leaked (more likely poured out on some of the hearse's). Play around in other peoples poop long enough and you dont pay much attention to it after awhile (I was an illegal plumber with my plumber uncle all through high school - lots of poop there and even more money)..

Fleagle Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Dan W.! When I arrived my first squadron (40 AS) we'd a 141 LM who'd retrained to the Herk after his first enlistment. He had one story where (I've no idea of the mechanics of it all) his aircraft was being serviced and something either failed or wasn't accomplished correctly. He said one of the service troops wound up soaked in "stuff" and the ramp a spiffy new brown stain..... glad I wasn't there! Greatest of days to all!
