UDAYA Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Hello Friends, Please respond who can help me in this EBH calculation and implementation. A positive response is greatly appreciated. Thanx & regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyclark Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 It is not real simple, and it has been 7 years since I retired. WR-ALC recorded the information on aircraft flights for the USAF. Aircraft flight data was tracked as far as profile, number of landings during a sortie, air drops and flight patterns among other things. There was a multiplication factor used depending on all of the parameters. This was multiplied by actual flight hours to get the EBH. Aircraft that just flew around in circles or straight easy flights had a low multiplication factor. Other missions required harder movement of the aircraft, so those had a higher factor. The engineer that ran the EBH study was Mr. Peter Christiansen, head of C-130 Engineering. I have no contact info for him, but I assume he still works at Warner Robins ALC, Georgia.

tinyclark Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Good on him. He spent a lot of time handling a buttload of C-130 issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinyclark Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 You would have to contact Warner Robins for any documents involving wingbox EBH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
