Released by 52nd Fighter Wing Public Affairs



10/13/2011 - SPANGDAHLEM AIR BASE, Germany – Airmen from the 52nd Logistics Readiness Squadron Fuels Management Flight and the 52nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron work together to refuel an A-10 Thunderbolt II during hot-pit refueling here Oct. 13. Hot-pit refueling saves time, manpower and equipment usage by using a Type-4 hydrant system to refuel aircraft while they are still running between training missions.

Please note: Pictured is A-10C 81-0988, but unfortunately the hi-res version above doesn't really shows the entire picture... @ Spang webmasters: Would you be so kind to repair this?
