Scott, "equipment" is a very broad and deep subject.  Can you specify which systems, GSE, what type of activity are you carrying out? etc?

Alaikum as-salam, MD Abu Sufian,

My employer is Defense and Development Enterprises, LLC ("D&D").  We are the OEM for the Fairchild ATM system, PN 104901 and 102981 used on C-130A-Early H.  We purchased the rights from Triumph Group in 2020. (see attached letter) 

D&D  can support this system with spare ATM units or individual sub-components.   From your description of the problems and steps taken, I think there are multiple hidden defects and internal wear which can only be effectively identified during a teardown of the system in the shop.   

We can offer an exchange ATM unit which comes with a 12 month warranty.  My e-mail is [email protected]

Md Abu Sufian, you need to clarify what is your question?? 

This is a low-tech suggestion based on experience.  Check the walkway non-skid applied to the top of the fuselage and wings in particular.   If this is applied too thick, with an excessively rough texture, it will increase drag dramatically.  I had to have painters remove and re apply non-skid paint for this very same reason. 

C-130 PDM inspections are governed by 1C-130A-6 Aircraft Scheduled Inspections and Maintenance Instructions, applicable to all C-130 aircraft.  However, this manual only provides general descriptions of inspection requirements.  It does not contain detailed procedures that can be followed.   Each organization's production control and engineering must create their own procedures based on these requirements, based on inspection and maintenance practices contained in other applicable maintenance manuals.

Replacement of sloping longeron per SRM 1C-130A-3, 53-199-00.

These new, all digital TD Amplifiers Mfg by ABB Inc, replace all preceding part numbers on T56A-7, -15 and -16.  

Does anyone know the TCTO number under which USAF approved the installation of this TD Amp?

Recommendation:  Have the PGB inspected/repaired/tested/certified by a RR approved shop, including a warranty! and hold them accountable. 

A bit of a late response but we picked up a lot of Australian (ex-Qantas Defense) C-130 GSE, which is for sale.  Email me if still interested. [email protected].

Hello all, I was an RCAF Herk rigger in the late 70’s. I am trying to find a diagram or clear photo showing the location of the early blue formation lights located on top of the wing. If I recall, there were 4, 2 on each side, aft of the box spar. Flush mounted, probably about 3” in diameter with a cobalt blue lens. I am a model builder and want to light up my Herk. I remember them from when I was doing DI’s and was up top checking for cracks or damage to the surfaces. So these were CC-130E and H. This was before the slime lights. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

                      Jeff

Hi Jeff, e-mail me at [email protected] and i'll set you up with info. 

Gents, assuming you are referring to Propeller Intermediate Control Rod?  However, there are more than one called "intermediate".  Please provide the part number of the "intermediate" rod you are dealing with.   6794188 link Rod, intermediate or 6826842 Bellcrank, Intermediate. There are very clear instructions on how to inspect these in T.O. 2J-T56-56.

I received Lars' latest edition.  Having difficulties contacting Fredrik Olausson for payment.  

[email protected] does not work anymore.  Can anyone provide a good e-mail address for Fredrik Olausson please? 

Thank you!

HercInherit, I have a 23rd edition which I use daily and treasure.  I would like to get a 30th.   Can you send me your e-mail for coordination? Mine is [email protected].   Thanks.

Shola, have you purged the fuel like to the atomizer, just prior to starting?  Checked in-line fuel filter PN 7507197? 

Wingtwister, if you still need one of these testers, you can e-mail me directly.  We have them in stock.  [email protected]. 

How much fuel is in the #2 tank? 

Eliasafr, I was able to verify using LM Drawings.

DWG. 388482, Note 9. 388482-1& -2 Similar to 380077-7 & -8.

DWG. 380077, Note 9. 380077-1, -2 & -7&-8, Similar to 373014-1L & -1R.

So this shows is a two-step link between your IPB PN 373014-X and the available PN 388482-X.

You should be OK, but I recommend obtaining additional confirmation from your supplier. 

Recomendation:  Upgrade propeller valve housing to Electronic Propeller Control.  Better yet, Upgrade propeller system to MP-2000. 

Yes, I have the part number for that seal.  It is not shown on the IPC portion of the 1C-130H-10.  But I have it and I have the "make from". Call me.

hello dear all, i'm looking for 1 pc, p/n 370512-1R. this is a LEADING EDGE. aircraft is C130J, italian air force. anybody knows who is the mfr for this part? i do not want to through LM. it will be super expensive and too long lead time. thank you

MAtteo, Did you find one yet?  I can quote you this PN in Overhauled condition with tags from an FAA Repair Station.  [email protected]

Some additional details in parenthesis..

Legacy C130E/H APU model is GTCP85-180L, PNo 381116-1- 3/5/6/7/8/9 (OEM Lockheed production configuration)

C130 APU upgrade model no GTCP85-180LE, PNo 381116-3 (Kellstrom Defense SHORT-POD(r) GTC-APU UPGRADE)

L382 model no GTCP85-185L, PNo 381252-1-2. (FAA TSO Civil certified APU)

C-130J/L-100J use GTCP85-185-L(A), (FAA TSO Civil Certified, electronically controlled APU)

Check sensing line from safety and outflow to atmosphere.  I've seen wasps block these with mud, resulting in similar havoc. 

Looks like a phishing expedition.  Reminding all users that C-130 tech pubs are "controlled" data. Not to be sent to anyone without proper authorization.
