Hot pit
SOUTHWEST ASIA - Airmen at the 380th Air Expeditionary Wing refuel an F-15 Eagle between sorties using hot pits. Fuels specialists partner with weapons and maintenance experts to top off the tanks, all while the pilot keeps one of the engines running. The process means pilots can take to the air faster, saving maintainers the 90 minutes it would take to prepare another jet. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. J.G. Buzanowski)
