Herk maintainers keep fleet flying
Staff Sgt. Kyle Pringle and Senior Airman Jacob Porter, 455th Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Squadron aerospace propulsion technicians, remove panels from an engine on a C-130J Hercules Dec. 5, 2016 at Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan. The C-130J incorporates state-of-the-art technology, which reduces manpower requirements, lowers operating and support costs, and provides life-cycle cost savings over earlier C-130 models.
