C-130 Prop Shop Spotlight!

Every five years a propeller needs a 5 year degrease. In addition, every 15 years, a propeller has met its 15 year life expectancy and has to come off. Sometimes due to bird strikes, or wear and tear damage discovered during routine inspections, a prop must also come off for service.

Yesterday, a propeller was removed due to a five year regrease and is now being broken down completely by the C-130J Prop Shop in-house. This new prop was hoisted up, put on, calibrated, and is prepared for high powered engine runs to meet mission requirements.

C-130 Maintenance teams like the one showcased here, are constantly working behind the scenes to ensure our aircraft are mission ready 24/7 365 days a year!
