    TOPIC:   Desert Express.

    OBSERVATION:   Project code 9AU should be used once deployed
to Saudi Arabia when requisitioning Class IX repair parts
associated with non mission capable system (NMCS) deadlined

parts through Charleston AFB via daily dedicated C-i 41 flight
to Saudi Arabia.

    TOPIC:   NICAD Batteries.

    OBSERVATION:   NICAD Batteries:  Require frequent recharg-
ing if used or stored at temperatures above 115 degrees
Fahrenheit.   Batteries should be recharged at temperatures
below 90 degrees Fahrenheit.   Recommend recharging at night or
early morning.

    VIEWER NOTES:


    TOPIC:   Cables are being broken fa~ter than normal.

    OBSERVATION:   Cable connectors are expanding in the heat
making cables much more difficult to connect/disconnect.   Extra
force is required to turn connectors, which is resulting in
broken internal connections in the cables.   Radio Preventive
Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS) and maintenance should
be done in the morning or evening.   Extra care needs to be
taken in dealing with cables.
