U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Kevin Ferreira, 100th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron Assistant Dedicated Crew Chief, waits as a U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker assigned to the 100th Air Refueling Wing is refueled 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.
