There are thirteen nuts and bolts on each side of the C-130's wings. These bolts hold the wings on the aircraft. While in for its periodic inspection at the Periodic Depot it was discovered that some had cracks and on some the part number couldn’t be matched to any number in the known inventory for the Air Force supply system. The system worked and allowed the parts to be replaced before creating any problems.
