I am a former KC-130 FE and I am finishing up my degree with ERAU. I am in the process of doing my Capstone paper and I am doing it on the issue of reduced TIT on the T56.

I would appreciate it if you could take a few minutes to participate in a survey pertaining to the issue.

I am doing a paper for ERAU about reduced TIT to save engines on T56. I was with a unit that flew 1010 and we had minimal engines changes due to turbine failures, compared to a fleet squadron that was flying at a recommended 932. I am looking for any information that may prove my claim..however I am open to any information that may prove me false also. It is a masters paper and I am just trying to get info.

1. flight hours between engine removal and replacement due to turbine failure, cracks

2. effect of constant touch and go on engine performance compared to cruise flight

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rick
