The C 130J Maintenance Facility of Choice for Lockheed Martin Aircraft
As of December 2010 fifteen nations have placed orders for 300 total Lockheed Martin c-130j "Super" Hercules aircrafts, of which 206 have been delivered. This four-engine turboprop military aircraft is the newest version of the Lockheed Martin Hercules model, and the only aircraft of theirs still in production. Out of the legendary company's fifty year history, this aircraft has staying power, outliving several successor designs. Compared to the C 130, the C 130j has updated technology including Rolls-Royce AE 2010 D3 turboprops and Dowty R391 composite scimitar propellers. The advancement in aviation technology, and the high demand for these aircrafts, creates the need for a c 130j maintenance centre that can handle the size, volume and technology that the Hercules brings to the operating table.
C 130j Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul
A large aircraft fleet requires a lot of space, staff and experience. The state-of-the-art c 130j maintenance centre at Cascade Aerospace has 230 000 square feet of floor space, to work on multiple c 130j maintenance jobs simultaneously. The facility, which was built in 2000, can accommodate eight narrow-bodied aircrafts. Cascade is the largest third-party, Transport Canada-Approved maintenance organization [AMO]. With a team of specialized aviation engineers, and staff working around the clock in the impressive facility, c 130j maintenance repair and overhaul services includes:
• Light and heavy c 130j maintenance checks
• Major structural inspection and repair
• Corrosion prevention control programs
• Supplemental structures inspection programs
• Bridge maintenance and maintenance planning
• Component repair and overhaul
• Operational support
• Fly-in and AOG support
Cascade Aerospace is a complete C 130j maintenance, modification and management team, providing all-around aircraft fleet services to military, government and commercial customers. In addition to c130j maintenance programs, the specialty aerospace and defence contractors also service other Lockheed Martin models including: the classic C-130, L-382 and L-100. Cascade Aerospace maintains and manages fleets with aircrafts under all models of the Boeing 737 and 757, in addition to many Bombardier aircrafts.
Great Location and Skilled Technicians for C 130j Maintenance and Management
C 130j maintenance for aircraft fleets is easily accessible when partnering with Cascade Aerospace. The facility is located with airside access, in Abbotsford International Airport, located in Abbotsford, British Columbia. Abbotsford is home to a rich aerospace community. The facility is set within close proximity to Boeing. Both the Abbotsford International Airport and the city-wide community of Abbotsford have partnered with Cascade to continue growing the aerospace community, which has already become a staple industry in the city.
Cascade currently has a satellite operation in Trenton, ON, on the Canadian Forces base. They provide the Department of National Defence with onsite support, for both the Hercules c-130 and c-130j. Their office is located in Ottawa, ON.
The staffs at Cascade Aerospace are as impressive as the facility, bringing years of specialty experience in engineering, c 130j maintenance and fleet management operations. For more information on c 130j maintenance programs, visit Cascade Aerospace online, cascadeaerospace.

Has anyone successfuly built an aircraft that can also hover?
It should be close to the size of a car. If no one has, is there anyone that is planning to or currently working on it? I was wondering because I'm planning to build one and put into public production the next few decades maybe. Any sources please?
Okay so helicopters can hover and they are aircraft but i understand what you mean you mean airplanes that can hover, an airplane that can hover is the harrier jump jet it is capable of S/VTOL Vertical/short takeoff and landing this means that they basically can go straight up of the ground they do this by directing the engine exhaust thrust to the ground. just a basic explanation
**EDIT**
okay sorry i didn't read your question properly there currently are no VTOL capable aircraft that are the size of a car because it would be currently difficult to build it efficiently due to the size to power ratio.
