The refuelling squadron will send your squadron commander that drogue if you tear it, signed by the entire flight crew. Then you will have a ceremony on your squadron where you, as guest of honour, get your panty presented to you, along with the bar bill for the night. Then it goes and is hung up in the squadron ready room, joining the rest of them. The OC also had his fair selection of them there as well, along with a few pieces of the aircraft he landed, after losing the rear half to a SAM.

"That's what she said, the pilot" Man slick with it.

While I will say that the ch53 was in a good situation to attempt an autorotation, high altitude and forward speed, those big helicopters autorotate like a safe. They expect to lose the tail and roll on their side in a best case scenario. But it's not like aerial refueling is their only hope, they try not to run that low on fuel.

The bigger the receiver, the bigger the bow wave. The tanker is always on autopilot, but the receiver has to stay in position. In an emergency, the tanker always goes up while the receiver heads down.

My understanding of inflight refueling is that missions are designed with safe diverts available if refueling fails. Assuming a non-catastrophic collision, of course.

Some people do that here during the winter. I think the risk is low especially in freezing temperatures when the gasoline has hard time forming fumes. Just my non-informed opinion.

In the four years I've been in my squadron, two of our jets have only caught two baskets when refueling midair. That basket was clean yanked out both times. One from some AF refueler and another from our wing's tanker squadron. For the tanker squadron, I guess the AD's didn't check those lines well and caused that mishap.

God bless these brave people and the families of those who lost their lives.

5:00 fantastic editing.

Thanks for converting to metric, i really appreciated

"that stallion way never boink again, but you can!" got me

While on the Nimitz off Iran during the Iranian hostage boondoggle, I was flying in Lockeed S-3 Vikings. Because we had a much higher carrier landing weight performance, we were utilized to download excess fuel off the duty tanker in order to conserve the fuel that would otherwise have to be dumped. On one evolution, we exceeded the capture speed and caused a sine wave (like the one shown). We had a solid capture but the sine wave came down the hose and it ripped the “basket” from the hose with the basket still connected to our refueling probe, which bent the probe pipe straight up. The KA-7 tanker had to make an immediate trap after the fuel finished draining from the “buddy pack”. We then trapped with the evidence clearly wrapped around our refueling probe. On another incident (same deployment) the bow wave of the S-3 caused the basket to deflect above the aircraft and then came down on the system operator’s canopy (directly behind the pilot’s canopy) crashing through it. That basket may look small, but it is about 2 - 3 feet long and is made out of metal slats with steel cables to absorb the stress put on them by air refueling exercises. Fortunately, they landed safely and the operator’s only injury was to his flight suit. Long hours of tedium, punctuated by moments of stark terror.

Just amazing How Pilots are brave just to try do it midair.. congratulations boys and girls

Dude, your graphic at the 1:07 mark...lol That's a picture of an F-16 aircraft, which can aerial refuel, but does NOT have a probe that sticks out from the nose. It has a door that opens up behind the cockpit, centered on the fuselage.

The men and helicopter from the doomed rescue mission were from the 106th Aerospace Rescue and Rescovery Squadron (A.R.R.S.), based out of Gabreski Airfield, here on Long Island, NYS. The call sign "Jolly 110" is a reference to the early days of this rescue unit, when they flew the HH-3C, known as the Jolly Green Giant. The HH-60G Pavehawk is a fine aircraft, but it is not suited to rescue missions in such severe weather. Even the aircraft I use to work on (MH-53H Pavelow III), while much larger, and thus, much more stable in flight, would have had a hard time in such extreme conditions. GOD rest Pararescueman, Technical Sergeant Smith

It should be remember that the TAMAROA put itself in extreme danger to make those rescues. She got laid over on her beam ends more than once during both the transit and the rescue. Every man who went topside to effect the rescue was a volunteer. There was no shortage of volunteers that night.

At least it wasn’t the Playboys this time.

I had the opportunity to watch that air to air refuelling, and it is very stressful on the pilots, even in smooth clear weather. Would hate to think of doing it at night, in a storm, as even in the smooth air the new pilots took a few attempts to connect, and the one finally did so, but was not watching his relative velocity, so drifted to in front of the tanker. Corrected with full speed brakes, and in the tanker we all had a jolt as that pipe disconnected. The valves are not meant to close so abruptly, so the aircraft was gently banking away, nicely shiny and with a instant full wash in jet fuel, to go get into the correct envelope to do an in flight restart, because that sudden blast of fuel had flamed his engine out nicely. 10 minutes later he came back up, connected correctly, got his positioning right, and got his remaining fuel pumped in in just under a minute. You only need a minute or so to fill up, those pumps move the 2000 US gallons needed to fill you at a pretty high pressure.

An helicopter has a very high center of gravity . When ditching, she would roll in seconds . It's safer to stay low with low speed to evacuate the crew from the cargo doors, and after that, ditching at a safe distance . The pilot and the copilot can leave as they are trained for . They had just been unlucky to be hitten by a huge wave before evacuating all the crew . With 20m fuel and so far from the coast, they didn't had any other option . That's a risky job .

1:14 I’m not saying conclusively that that didn’t happen, but the horizon stayed consistent for the whole time until the E3 dived down. If the bottom of the refueller was pushed up by the bow wave of the E3 then you would expect the refueller to nose down which would mean we would see more sky. But instead the horizon stayed the same which just makes me think this was human error with pilot induced oscillation.
