  1. The only thing I remember is that you could not use plastic chocks on the c-141. If you are depending on any chock to stop a c-130 during a power run 'forget about it!!!). They were never banished from the C-130.
  2. Marines and Army still call it a chow hall. How is chow (definition: food, especially hearty dishes or a meal) derogatory? It must be the word "hall" that bothers the Boys in Blue. I have always called it a Chow hall and always will!!!
  3. I would never full jack on asphalt first of all next the slope max if I remember right is 2.5 %. If unsure about the surface you can always put steel plate larger than the jack pads under them to make the footprint larger. The slope and field condition was in the 1C-130A-2-3CL-1(I think). Currently nothing in the books to prevent jacking for any reason!
  4. They'll be ready just before they go to the bone yard. This project was scheduled to initially be done with all aircraft including the E's by 2014. Gotta love it when a plan goes together!
  5. Basically it's where the aircraft changes structural direction from vertical to horizontal or vise versa.
  6. Urgent action TCTO INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT OF MAIN LANDING GEAR WHEEL TIE BOLTS PART NUMBER GY1810-60 ON C-130 AIRCRAFT THRU AF08-08607
  7. We used the B- model books for all the E's. For example: TO 1C-130B-2-9 FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS USAF SERIES C-130B, C-130E, C-130H AIRPLANES AF73-01580 THROUGH AF73-01598 TO 1C-130B-2-2CL-6 ORGANIZATIONAL MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST GENERAL AIRCRAFT APPLYING EXTERNAL POWER USAF SERIES C-130B, C-130E, C-130H,HC-130H/N/P USCG SERIES HC-130B AIRCRAFT
  8. Some quick things to look at: Check the scavenge system back pressure. Maximum is 30 PSI. Clean/replace oil cooler, fuel heater, hoses, and/or scavenge oil filter element as necessary to bring the pressure to normal. Make a ground run to see if oil consumption/venting is occurring all the time or just at altitude. Sometimes, draining all the oil, sumps, cooler, lines, etc., and refilling with new oil will solve the problem. Contaminated or mixed oil, or oil that has lost its anti-foaming characteristics may be the problem. If the problem appears to be altitude related, replace, as necessary, the oil tank pressurizing valve (old valve P/N 697218-l set at 3.5 +/- 0.5 PSI, new valve P/N 697218-3 set at 5 +/- 0.5 PSI), or the oil tank filler cap seal; and check the upper portion of the oil tank for cracks. During flight, determine if the problem of oil venting is related to air speed and/or attitude (nose high). NOTE: If venting occurs during or soon after takeoff regardless of attitude or altitude, the reduction gear prop shaft seal is suspect. NC97: MY INFO OUT OF AN OLD BOOK YOUR PART NUMBER IS MORE BETTER!!
  9. We used -60's (air cart with power) to blow the snow off the F4's at Seymour Johnson in the early 80's, ah yes don't forget the broom!!!
  10. Initially the fleet including alot of E's were to have been converted by now. I won't hold my breath on when this mod will ever get done. (maybe by 2020!!!)
  11. USAF trains personnel on deicing equipment when you go into an area it may be required. When I was in Florida no one there was trained to deice aircraft. They may be now since they have been playing areas where there is snow/ice.
  12. What kind of info on it? They are generally local CL. Just don't spray that stuff down any type of inlet or duct or over the windshield.
  13. What cables might we be talking about?? Throttle, cond lever, flight control???
  14. Tiny, I know you didn't forget to tell the about Hooters!! Dewey Destins (there are two) great seafood (behind the Irish Pub), looks like a dive but has great food.
  15. Where the heck are these supposed to be used? Got pictures?
  16. This is from the GS. If I figure this right the lights will ony be operative after the test switch is acutated (fwd of aft). If they come on any other time the system failure either partial or complete, depending on the number of lights The anti-skid test and failure system consists of two independent logic circuits. These circuits are the system test logic and system failure logic. The function of the test logic is to verify the ability of the wheel control printed circuit cards to function dynamically. The system test logic provides a dynamic test for skid control circuits and an in flight test for the locked-wheel circuits. The system test may be performed only with the parking brake released. A 400 Hz simulated wheel-speed signal is applied to the forward or aft control section by the test switch. When the test switch is released the test signal is removed from the control section. The removal of the test signal appears to the control section as a skid which results in a valve signal to operate the test indicators. Failure logic provides a full time check for failures that would cause the system to be totally or partially inoperative.
  17. When you use taper pins the is no play allowed.
  18. Is this good Tiny or do you need a REAL picture? Mike
  19. Always question the reliability of the Anticipator stats. Get the drawings and ensure all are working IAW.
  20. F-111D/E/F/A at Cannon and Upper Heyford F-4E at Seymour Johnson A-10A at Grissom C5-A at Westover AC-130A, C-130E, MC-130E, MC-130P/N at Duke As a Crew Chief C-130E,H,J MC-130H and MC-130P As AFETS
  21. The taper pin hole is drilled using the pin drawing. Let me know if it helps!
  22. Straight out of the book SKYFLEX is still authorized as of CHANGE 15 - 15 MARCH 2009, unless of course you have a supplement somewhere stating that!! Sealant, Polyurethane Injectable (AV-DEC), TG2010-50 Sealant Tape, Polyurethane (AV-DEC), HT3935-7-100 Sealant Tape, PTFE (skyflex) Thin non-metallic wedges, cutters and scrapers Warning tags Washers, teflon, part No. GUA6003 (as required when using PTFE tape in lieu of MIL-S-8784 sealant)
  23. Accidently spray some stuff that has orange in it and give them something to sue about. Maybe that drug lab they are hiding there will show up. All the wall needs is a little concertina wire.
