| Due to in-flight loss of power events, the Coast Guard decided to perform re-engining as soon as possible to restore safe and reliable operations. The new engines give the HH-65 greater power, better maneuverability, and higher safety standards. Captain Jim Hubbard, commanding officer of Air Station Atlantic City, and U.S. Rep.
