Phone System
The 911 emergency system is used at Little Rock AFB
and in the surrounding area just as it is within the rest of
the United States and Canada. Dialing 911 from an onbase
or off-base phone connects to an operator who can
immediately arrange for police, fire or medical service to
respond appropriately to an emergency.
Dialing a call from office to office on base or making a
call to base housing requires dialing seven digits.
To call off base from an official phone, first dial 99, then
the seven-digit number for numbers within the 501 area
code. Calls to other area codes require a PIN and can be
obtained from your unit telephone control officer. From
base housing, dial the seven-digit number for calls within
the 501 area code, or 1, area code and number for calls
outside the 501 area code.
DSN service is available from official phones on base.
To call, first dial 94, then the seven-digit number.
The C-130A on static display at the main gate is one of the more famous of the Herks used
by the Air Force for the past half century. This aircraft was actually the last one out of Saigon
in the spring of 1975 when the armies of North Vietnam overran South Vietnam.
Flown by a Vietnamese flight crew, this aircraft set a record which will likely never be
challenged. When it landed in Thailand several hours later, after getting lost and wandering out
over the South China Sea, more than 450 people came down the ramp. Some 32 of these
people actually rode in the cockpit.
The story is that in Saigon, as the plane prepared to take off,
hundreds and hundreds of refugees made their way to the airport to
try and get aboard any plane going anywhere. These refugees
surged up the ramp as the C-130 prepared for take-off. The plane
prepared to taxi, but it was so crowded that the crew chief could not
raise the ramp. Informed of this problem, the pilot began taxiing and
then slammed on the brakes, which caused everybody in the aircraft
to jolt forward. This created just enough space to raise the ramp.
The ramp was quickly hoisted into position and every inch of runway
was used to stagger into the air with a grossly overloaded aircraft.
