Haroon Ahmed Its good for them to do it. Pilots often talk about the boredom of flying around up there only able to communicate officially. When the Boom Operator’s chat with them, it boosts morale, and that boosts our chances of winning.
A positive and confident personality is a must for both the pilot and fuel-in-the-sky agent; if not, then we have plenty of potatoes and onions that you can peel. Some service people just don't like small talk.
I imagine that as these planes take on fuel, especially the B-52, their added weight must cause them to adjust during the refueling. This process is already dangerous.
Since We are American s they shoukd buzz the skys exspecially in Oakland County that wiuld be Awesome I was up North in Gaylord MI and the A10's were flying out of Graying Ml I spill have 3 pics od the on my phone it's so Cool ti be And American👍👍👍
I think B52 pilots must be the best pilots in the world. The aircraft are so precious and that weird undercarriage. You must have to be very good and very experienced to be selected to fly a B52.
1. The tanker can be refueled by another tanker. 2. I'm not sure if these vdieos that are put together were all recorded on the same day. It could possibly be different missions, different days.
I love this mission! "Boom Operator". Equals Precision. Had a chance to go on an incentive flight with the KC-135 refueling...sat near the boom operator! Awesome! Thank you for doing great work!
wind might not help with refueling too..hose not hooked UP to...or a.pilot error..too..Those are my reason for being dangerous for refueling...great video..great view too...Thank you so much for your videos too...
Keychain117+ Haha they actually do pay (and by "they" I mean their home unit). The boom operator reads the tail number to the pilot-not-flying (usually the co-pilot) since the boom operator's hands are occupied during refueling. After the flight, the crew files a form with all the tail numbers, aircraft home units, and fuel offload amounts. This is basically the "invoice" that is sent to the aircraft's home unit to bill them for the gas.
Isso é o máximo a gente poder ver abastecer esses aviões achei muito interessante... abastecer no ar não deve ser nada faço tem que ter muita praticidade mesmo desejo uma boa sorte..e que Deus os proteja sempre todos esses pilotos.. vocês são um gênio..nessa manobra..
I think they should change the name of the B-52 "Stratofortress" to the B-52 "immortal", that plane has been flying since the 1950's and is older than the pilots flying it !!!!!
YOu can see here a thirsty warthog coming back to nurse from the mother, the f15 wizzo is like why am i even here? and that b-52 is like im older than all of you combined
The A-10 can be pretty tough to refuel. It's very slow, and the bow wave pushes against it when it's at it's closest to the Tanker. Once it gets through, then sometimes the pilots will try to fly the receptacle into the boom, instead of just getting into position and letting the boom operator handle the technical part. It screws up the refueling when they do that. When they're getting heavier with gas, then tend to not move so quickly, anymore. They often slow down, in fact.
im sure this wouldn't happen but if the attachment breaks off, and the fuel spilling is solid, the engine of the fighter jet will ignite the solid line of fuel and blow up the big aircraft.
There has been 1 incident where a boom has ripped itself off of an airplane. Computer went "Terminator" on itself and boom fell off. The valves can be closed to prevent too much fuel from pouring out.
@@ironzurk313 he has a laser guided bomb on a pylon under the main body of the fuselage. Clearly visible at 5:20 . It's optical guidance portion attached to the bomb itself clearly visible just to the left of the F-15s right intake. I know what a drop tank looks like.
For all US make military air crafts its really tough art because pilot can't see refueling nozzle easily.. b because that is on top of air craft and back of pilot head.F16,F15, F A 18, F 22,F35 all these of such type of refueling arrangement. In case of Russians and French European military aircrafts its an easy art. Because arial refuelling nozzles are given on nose of air craft. Either left ward or right ward. Its in any case in front of pilots or in his straight vission. Euro fighter typhoon, Russian Mig 29 UPG, mig 35, Sukhi Su 27,30 , Swedish Gripen and French mirage 2000 , Rafale same arrangement for aerial refilling.
Thank you to all the service men and women for doing a difficult and amazing job.
I love how the pilot and the person behind the fueling stick have a conversation while refueling, it's funny
Ikr
it's called a "boom" not fueling stick
That's a mixture of U.S. and Korean F-16's
Haroon Ahmed It is an elite!

That was the best job, with the best people on the best air refueling platform I’ve ever had. Spent 7 glorious years working on the Big Sexy!
Tanker: B-52 how much fuel do you need?
B-52: All of it!
Well played sir well played.
"Yes."
I was gonna say. Drain the tank.
These personel make it look so easy and routine.That's what professionals do
Watching the precision moves never gets old.Thank you guys and gals.
Thanks for your service guys and gals.
The flag in the foreground while doing the B52 was a cool sight.
The A-10 is my favorite gun with a plane built around it.
with that hose sticking out turned it into a killer unicorn.
Asus rog phone 3 is favourite battery with mobile built around it
brrrrrrt
@@danielli2522 I believe the F15 was one of the last dog fighting planes built by the U.S.
It's cool how the A-10 slides in!!!(0:23)
Anthony Turner sliding into ISIS's dms too
Anthony Turner send missiles
Oh baby I'm about to....
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTT
deja vu i just been in this place before
A-10 is maneuverable, but it can drift too?...thirst quenched, 'bout to wreak some havoc on ISIS now.

@ 2:18 I suddenly realized what freedom looks like...
00:23 ta naaaaa! im here guys!
America must be strong in both economy and defense capability. We love America and love to see America is great.
Flying AWACS, 22 minutes hanging on in crappy weather at night was a real sweaty issue!
Man, those B-52's look badass with those external pylons. Especially having loaded 3 2000lb bomb on a single pylon.
A-10 is a beautiful machine
thank you all for your service...i’m proud of you all.....you are the best....
Must have been a hot day everyone was thirsty! Awesome.
Massive Cool !

Hate to be on the receiving end of a a-10 great plane keep it going! Don't get rid of it!!
It looks like the A10 is a dream to fly. So smooth.
Just loved to see the A-10
I imagine that as these planes take on fuel, especially the B-52, their added weight must cause them to adjust during the refueling. This process is already dangerous.
Yes, you're right, P P. It does change their flight dynamics during the refuel. It's gradual, and they gradually adjust to it.
That A10 is something else that Gatling Gun is ridiculous apart from every other sweets it has for delivery !!!!!
This is so IMPRESSIVE! What talent!
Been there, done that. Best job I ever had
0:01 pilot: what r u doing back there?
co-pilot: refueling!!
NOPE! No copilot in the back when refueling is happening. There had better be 2 butts in the seats up front....

It does make one wonder how much fuel these things carry when the video shows refilling a B52 after all the other planes. Love the A10s too.
A KC-10 can hold about 350,000 pounds of fuel....~52,000 gallons.
really and where does it hold it,the wings,that much is the size of a truck.Jet engines run on compressed air.
In the baggage compartment.
1. The tanker can be refueled by another tanker.
2. I'm not sure if these vdieos that are put together were all recorded on the same day. It could possibly be different missions, different days.

@TEKNOMOGUL have you seen one up close on the ground?
they fueled up without paying cheeky!
I think they used an app to pay in advance
Keychain117 already paid as this gas station accepts taxes as a form of payment
XD
Keychain117+ Haha they actually do pay (and by "they" I mean their home unit).

Lol tax payers fit the bill 🤝
what a cool job! i want that job.
What's the altitude you're refueling at? Trying to get a perspective of the ground below.
I had the pleasure of sitting in a KC-130 refueler operator station on a trip from Ft. Bragg go Ft. Irwin for NTC OPFOR training in 1985
GREAT everythink.God bless America.
Amazing... what a pricise calculation....

God the a10 is beautiful
Bro that was a nice AF contact at 3:40
one of these days someones going to sneeze and then it will be on news at 10.
Dr Bendover frr
This is sneezeproof technique, so no news at 10 :) But what they will do afterward, might be on news.
Nice clip!
1:10 A-10 eyes be like: let's attach to this bih
Video intro, 0:09-0:22, engine start, did anybody notice it is a B-727? Details, details.
Amazing
Nice vídeo
AWESOME!! GO USAF! 18.5 Years myself! Lol
How much time it's taking for air refueling..?
Which gas station is this?
SinclAIR
KC-10
SHELL
An expensive one
The ESSO up the road near Johns house.
Man, those boom operators on the KC-10 want you close. Really close!
gee the weapon combination on the A-10 is alot more than i thought.
Good run out!!
Thanks for the service,Jesus Bless and keep safe
I think they should change the name of the B-52 "Stratofortress" to the B-52 "immortal", that plane has been flying since the 1950's and is older than the pilots flying it !!!!!
The Royal Air Force normally eat their packed meals and drink tea during refuelling ops.
You are correct, and the KC-135 is one year younger than the B-52. It was built to go along with the B-52. Two flying marvels.
Please check the oil and tire pressure
How fast are the tanker & jet going during refueling?
It depends on what aircraft are being refueled. Some need faster speeds, like the B-1. Some need slower speeds, like the A-10. Around 250-350mph.
YOu can see here a thirsty warthog coming back to nurse from the mother, the f15 wizzo is like why am i even here? and that b-52 is like im older than all of you combined
In the old days, they also gave greens stamps...
how much Time it takes for refueling and pl explain about quantity also...
Fighters take about 10 minutes.
Heavier planes like the B-52 take quite a bit longer. It depends on how much they want.
Which is the toughest aircraft to refuel?
An enemy aircraft.

@@erikipf wow!
Nice contacts brother
Those were tough
How many gallons b52 took ,I wonder 🤔
that is impressive!
How many gallons per second (?)
I like the painting at the nose of A10 it's looks mean.
Peace thru strength!
Great 👍
If both aircrafts' software could talk, then it'd be as easy as 123
How long does it take to fill uo not long i guess
00:13 Anyone know what watch is that ?
im sure this wouldn't happen but if the attachment breaks off, and the fuel spilling is solid, the engine of the fighter jet will ignite the solid line of fuel and blow up the big aircraft.
There’s probably a back up shut off valve
There has been 1 incident where a boom has ripped itself off of an airplane. Computer went "Terminator" on itself and boom fell off. The valves can be closed to prevent too much fuel from pouring out.
Any vacancy for that job sir?
Remember when the gas guy would check your oil and clean your windshield?
Yeah very 60s
The video ended because the buff took all the juice!
Now I know why A10s look cross-eyed.

Those are fuel tanks

@@KatiePhongh im retarted i didnt see that sorry
but it looks like some sort of gbu not a jdam not to educated on laser guided bombs tho
@@ironzurk313 @ 5:17 you can see the laser targeting pod under the left intake.
why is the nose cone on the bomb of the f15 crooked? at 5:16 left side of screen
Almost as crooked as my dick.
That is the gimbal with optics detector for the laser guidance.
what if you make planes work with electricity and can wireless charge them within a range of 100 metres?

Navy uses probe and drogue fueling
*Happy brrrrt noises*
In flight is refueling, mid air is collision.
They Gotta be nervous having a Vulcan cannon point at you
Guys it's a refuel training exercise. Stop with the nonsense comments.
This is more like a refueling flight over Afghanistan...
The A-10 weapons configuration is similar to what we were able to see in Afgha.
It shouldn’t be an art it should all be computer.
Looks like a KC10. B52 with full bomb load can’t take off with full fuel load.
2:52 I have seen an object on the background moving from eight o'clock to two o'clock direction. Can any one see what is that plane? Seems an A-10?
just a A10 without wings

It's another A-10
