A U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker pilot from McConnell Air Force Base's 350th Expeditionary Air Refueling Squadron makes micro corrections during a touch-and-go landing over the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility, July 1, 2024. The KC-135 is returning from a mission to refuel a KC-46 Pegasus from McConnell Air Force Base's 22nd Air Refueling Wing during Project Magellan, a 45-hour max endurance training mission, circumnavigating the globe nonstop. MEOs go beyond the standard flight duty period, when the requirements for Rapid Global Mobility meet the challenge of extreme distance paired with accelerated timelines.
