    A U.S. Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon pilot, assigned to the 77th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron deployed to Prince Sultan Air Base, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, waves taxis down the runway of Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, on Nov. 8 2020. As of Oct. 31, 2020, after rigorous training, Airmen deployed as parts of the 379th Expeditionary Maintenance Group and the 379th Expeditionary Logistics Readiness Squadron became qualified to run sustained 24-hour hot-pit refueling operations on any number of aircraft that rotate through AUAB. Hot-pit refueling allows aircrew to land, keep their aircraft engines running while they refuel, before taking off to continue the next leg of their respective missions.
