- Close up look at Historical Aircraft Restoration Societies donated RAAF P3 Orion A9 753. Engineer check, engine run up, Taxiing test undertaken on Sat 10/2/18 at HARS hangars Illawarra regional Airport NSW Australia.
I miss hearing that distinct humming the P-3's produce, I used to hear it all the time when I visited my uncle who was stationed at the former Barbers Point NAS during the 70's and early 80's then I lived and worked near Barbers Point.
I was in a VP (patrol) squadron in the Navy. To give you an idea of how much power this old bird has, they could shut down three engines and climb on one. They didn't have the load they normally carry but I saw it done. Impressive.
I first flew in P3's in 1970, in the P3A. I spent 20 years in the P3-B in the reserves and accumulated over 1000 hours. Of all the airplanes I've flown, She is absolutely my favorite airplane, bar none.
I maintained instruments, controls, navigation system, autopilot etc. on the P3C. They are still in use today. They have been used as hurricane hunters, for drug interdiction and other jobs because they can loiter on station for extended periods. I saw where at least one commercial airline used them for passenger and freight service. Lockheed can be proud.
@@artmills7957 Art, what I wouldn't give to get a ride in the new P8.
I was serving in VP-6 when we took delivery of brand new P3A's to replace our SP-2H Neptunes. That was over the Winter of 65-66. Now it's called a historical aircraft. Geez I'm getting old.
VP-50, VP-31, VP-4
Hi, used 2b trained as an IIAF member in Vp 31during 1972-3, and still remember all good moments I had in my whole life with all those great people, specially cmsgt Tom lowise and Jim butler. You are all great people.
I was a member of VP-48 from 1966 to 1968. We had a detachment in Guam and one day we decided to fly a P 3 to Saipan to tour the island. Great fun. We spent 7 months at Iwakuni MCAir station. It was supposed to be 6 months but the Pueblo incident happened. I was AK3 and it was great duty.
Excellent. I have flown on American Airlines Electra II's many years ago when I was a kid and my dad worked for American. I noticed that the Props on this plane, and other P3's likely, have rounded tips where the Electra II had squared/flat tips. Originally manufactured by Dowty Rotol I think. Now named Dowty Propellers. Love these planes and that sound. Thanks
2 of my Favorite A/C side by side. Each having thier own unique look & sound! 🙂
The P3 is so much better than the P8. A tried and true platform the Navy should not have given away. Yes, I know we still fly it, but it is not supported like it used to be.
It might have been 1994, give or take a year, when they had an air show at Moffet Field. I was a pipe fitter working next door at Lockheed.
We were ordered not to be on the roofs of the buildings on the day of the air show, so naturally, that is the place I situated myself. I was
the only worker on the roofs of all the Lockheed buildings, that I could see. It was a beautiful day, and the air craft were flying low and
it was a lot of fun. What I remember, specifically, is that a P3 Orion, which often flies out of Moffet Field, did a low altitude barrel roll.
It was amazing. I did not expect that from such a large plane.
mu99ins that thing can fly on one engine , used to listen to them wind up NAS Jax
Nope
@@davejackson5989 - Yep
@@mu99ins I have 2400 flight hours in the P3 and can guarantee this never happened.
@@davejackson5989 - I saw it with my own eyes up close. I believe you that you are a pilot of a P3, and that you did not do a barrel roll. As I consider the practice unsafe. I reckon if you did do that, you'd be replaced. That does not mean that every pilot flies that aircraft the same way. Just like the normal pilot of a F/A-18 does not fly their jets taking the risks that the Blue Angels take.
Like the C130. A sound I’ll remember to my grave.
I used to fly ordinance men p3po Ryan's from 1975 to 1978 best times of my life man left every freaking minute of it nothing like flying low and dropping stuff
Willow grove PA stationed, now in an army aviation unit, still love this P3 aircraft.
Hope someone in Australia will take the initiative and turn a few of these Orions into fire fighting aircraft, based at Edinburgh or Canberra to fight fires rather than importing aircraft from the USA at enormous costs. They can be sent to any State to fight fires but I would imagine that it would be too difficult for someone in authority to logically think that far. They can be converted as other countries have done. Lot of life left in them still.
Sounds good, but there's more power for politicians when they can spend more money. After all, its not theirs.
I like the video and worked on these at VP-23 1982-1985
Love the P3,helped saved many lives.
AE VP31 NAS Moffett Field 1976-1979. What a plane. Also got see cool planes flying for NASA Ames. Watching the U-2 take off never got old.
I was attached to a ASW command, and we would have crew members from the squadron visit and get the dog n pony show of what we did, and there seemed to be the constant laugh that never got old was when they would pull out a picture of the CO of a Soviet sub that was being prosecuted as he looked up and here was a P3, what must've seemed like a arm's length away, with that, Oh Spit, Oh Dear... Where did THAT come from without our seeing it on radar/sonar, look on his face!?!
Those were the days my friend. We thought _ _ _ _
😉😎
Amazing, ambitious HARS programme!
Nice aircraft. I was working on Il-38. It looks like Orion
How did you like the Il-38?
@@mikesmith7249 Very simple and durable aircraft. I like it
I was 492Sqn when these arrived. Good times.
My old bird ! Many hours there !
SKY King
Lucky guy.
Cheers from France........and thanks for keeping the free world safe
button, light, air drop, rotation...
It looks like the props can disengage from the turbine engines. Or am I seeing things?
Its the video that makes it look like that. The props run at 1020 rpm all day, via a reduction gearbox from turbine section that runs at 13,820 rpm all day. Constant speed engines. Power is altered by changing blade angle and adjusting fuel flow to compensate.
Hi does anybody know what the government did with these aircraft when they retired them?.
Plz suggest if there any t56A-14 troubleshoot group is
Brazil ( 4 )👍😎excellent nave! Congratulations !
Esse aviao tem no brasil🇧🇷
Didn't want to close the door handle?
1st Class video liked and subbed
VP-24. NAS Jacksonville…76-78. Sure miss that plane!
I served with VP-10 out of Brunswick Maine 1990-1995.
aircraft for eveeeeeeer !!!!!!!!!!
Tail beacon not working either burnt out at the time that needs to be working when aircraft is in operation.
A beauty ... design
I was in Brunswick ME 1983-1985 VP 23
I was a crew chief on a p3
Pacs river vp 64
does it still fly
Still flys in Canada.
We have here in the museum an old P-3P ex-Australian AF.
Are you in Portugal? A9-294 went there. Spent many hours flying in her.
@@ivlonsdale I don't know the former serial number. I will dig a bit!
@@ivlonsdale I got it, PoAF 14806 was A9-298, so I don't know if any of the other 5 survived. They were substituted by ex-Dutch P-3Cup+.
A9-294 was 14803
Obrigado Vasco. Yes I also knew A9-298 well. I worked on these aircraft from 1973-78. Stay well
It's engine sound same with the C-130.
They are essentially the same, but the gearbox is inverted, altering shape of nacelle, and moving intake from top to bottom for c130.
Thanks thıs vıdeo
serao motore alison? como o C130?
Engine/Motor: Allison T-56 in P-3, C-130, E-2 Hawkeye.
Yes.
Was the best looking bird in the skies.🙁
Tell me your at HARS without telling me that your at HARS.
One tough bird .
4 flghts over Taiwn strait on March 2020.
Not sure where this was filmed; however I am positive this is not Moffett Field.
@@donkirkley4622 They note it in the description: Illawarra regional Airport NSW Australia.
Definitely not Moffett Field.
I spent 12 of my 20 years in the Navy stationed at Moffett.
that stinger...
NCPOS Tack MAD
@@williamsimmons152 I know, it's a Magnetic Anomaly Detector (MAD) It just looks like a stinger
@@tack9571 I remember the big degaussing ring on a long pole that had to run over this periodically. I also have a front tooth chipped from changing the detector inside the MAD boom. It was a windy day with the tail moving up and down and the ratchet got me almost 50 years ago.
@@Chris_at_Home Damn
very much over powerd for it time
Gary Gass hi, it took me by surprise,,when I found out those engines are also used on C130 HERC, CHEERS FROM NJ USA🇦🇺🇺🇸
Yes, about 4000 hp each.
T-56 -14 engines were 4600 shaft HP.
@@BigCat1951 I think those were used in the P3-C. Never flew in them.
We had -14 on P-3B's, I was a flight engineer in VP-6 from 75 to 78. I flew all three in VP-31 training.

Gary Gass, oh no my friend, she is so very much more! I was lucky enough to have the privilege of riding along on several 14 hour long “round robin” anti submarine warfare patrol missions (ASW). These were flown out of MCAS Iwakuni, Japan. In the late 60’s I was the control tower OIC. Skimming the waves with two engines feathered for extended air time was impressive. I then knew why some of the birds would come back with one engine out in an emergency. They were all outboard engines too. Those were the ones shut down. Sea spray from heavy seas would foul the intakes. That’s how close they flew from the surface of the waves.
Yes, it is called a turboprop. The T-56 comes in two variants, odd and even. The even numbers, dash 10, 12, etc belong to the P-3. The odd numbers, dash 11, 13, etc belong to the C-130. The P3 engine sits right side up, the C-130's are inverted.
The jet doesn't provide thrust, but powers the propellers.
@@johnemerson1363 AND THE - 427 BELONGS TO THE E2D HAWKEYE
