Pit stop

Airmen with the 188th Fighter Wing conduct “hot-pit” refueling during a Unit Training Assembly at the 188th Nov. 6. The process is required training for Airmen and is a common practice in the Unites States Central Command Area of Responsibility. The objective of the process is to increase the number of sorties by decreasing the number of thru-flight inspections required each time the engines shut down.
