U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Dylan Jones, 100th Logistics Readiness Squadron Fuels Distribution operator, grips a release handle for a fuel transport system, or pantograph, to refuel a KC-135 Stratotanker via a “hot-pit refuel” at RAF Fairford, England, May 15, 2024. Hot-pit refueling is a technique used to eliminate downtime by keeping an engine running while the aircraft is refueled, which allows the aircraft to immediately prepare for taxi and take off once fueling is complete.
