Capt. Taylor Bye is the first woman to receive the Kolligian Trophy. Bye was lauded for her airmanship in landing a busted-up A-10 back to Moody Air Force Base in April 2020.
The first C-130H with eight-bladed propellors assigned to the 133rd Airlift Wing has returned home after modifications.
A C-130 Hercules from the 133rd Airlift Wing is parked on the flight line in St. Paul, Minn., May 11, 2022. The 133rd is currently in the second phase of the modernization process, which includes transitioning the C-130s from four-bladed propellers to eight-bladed propellers. The eight-bladed propellers will deliver more power and efficiency while reducing maintenance. The completion of this phase is projected to end in September 2023.
