    C-130A s/n 57-0460 Engine Logs

    Lots of luck Warbird pilot. Just an outside chance that the last outfit who owned the bird might still have them but is not likely. When this acft. was taken off the books all records would have been sent with the acft. to the Smithsonian or to the AF museum in Dayton or destroyed by the last military unit that owned it. When we got Ghost Rider, they flew it into Dobbins ARB and the only thing I ended up with was the 781 Forms and binder. Course we were going to display it not fly it...what are you going to do with it?;) Bill

    ​Thanks, Bill!

    We are just planning to use it for static display, but we would like to have the logs on hand "just in case."

    Hello, my name is Austin Hancock, and I am a volunteer with the National Warplane Museum (Geneseo, NY.)

    Our museum has the opportunity to acquire a Lockheed C-130A, serial number 57-0460, from the Smithsonian. We are searching for the engine logs for the Allison T56-A-1A turboprop powerplants. We are hoping that someone may be able to help us, or at least point us in the right direction(s.) So far, I've written to Maxwell AFB, who had no info for us. Also, I have written to Rolls-Royce (Allison engine) and Lockheed-Martin (plane manuf), and had no response yet.

    Any help you could give us would be of most assistance. Thank you in advance!

    Best,

    Austin Hancock
