SOUTHWEST ASIA--(left to right) Airman 1st Class Seth Hammont, Senior Airman Robert West from the 380th Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Squadron pushes an E-3 Sentry engine while Senior Airman Rodney Poe, also from the 380th EAMXS guides it out here Aug. 24. They are replacing #4 Engine due to the fact that it surpassed allowable exhaust temperature limits. This was the 6th engine change in 120 days. The normal fix time to remove and replace an E-3 engine is 18 hours. The technicians here have sliced that time in more then half. Their average time to change an engine and replace the aircraft to flyable condition here is 8 1/2 hours. They are all deployed from the 552nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, Tinker Air Force Base, Okla. Airman Poe is from Barnwell, Ark., Amn Hammont is from Jordanville, N.Y., and Airman West is from Olympia, Wash.(U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Christopher A Campbell)(released)
