U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Robert Quinn, 100th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron Aerospace Propulsion craftsman, guides a fuel transport system, or pantograph, after refueling 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.
