Contract Field Team
Maintenance mechanics work on B-1 fuel-cooling scoops at Ellsworth Air Force Base, South Dakota. After the fuel-cooling scoops are removed, the bushings at the hinge points are replaced due to excessive wear since the last inspection. A joint effort between DLA Aviation's Forging and Casting Assistance Team, DLA engineers and Air Force officials led to a crucial contract on the scoops that reduced costs and saved DLA more than $220,000.
