    U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Robert Gere, 52nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron dedicated crew chief, marshals an F-16 Fighting Falcon during a “hot pit” at Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany, March 28, 2017. “Hot pits” double sortie generation time and expedite the refueling process by approximately 30% by fueling the aircraft while its engine is running.
