    A U.S. Airman assigned to the 354th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron renders a “squadron salute” to a U.S. Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon pilot assigned to the 18th Aggressor Squadron upon successful completion of hot-pit refueling at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, May 20, 2022. Hot-pit refueling is a technique used to eliminate downtime and increase reliability. After an aircraft lands and parks; instead of powering down the engines, the aircrew keeps an engine running while the aircraft is refueled. (U.S. Air Force photo)
