The aircraft departed with nearly 11,000 flying hours and will be divested to the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group, Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona. This divestment continues the C-130H to C-130J Super Hercules aircraft conversion here. (U.S. Air Force video by Capt. Donnie Hatheway)
Starting May 7, 2025, all visitors to Youngstown Air Reserve Station will be required to present a REAL ID-compliant identification card for base entry in addition to current entry procedures. This change is directed by DHS and the DoD and applies to all federal facilities.
