Left landing light is burnt out. I can hear the whine of those engines even today. Those engines are the same ones that are on the B-52, except the Buf has eight of them.

What's that hump above the cockpit? Is that the hinge? Tanning booth?

Wait. USAF the tanker hooks up to you. Navy, they fly into the boom. Am I getting warm?

Opt for tanning booth. Cheap warm-up!

You're right on Snippy, a feature added after Uke flew in one. Part of the B model package, tanker boom receptical. Like the picture of the penguins Uke. Operation Deep Freeze. We would resupply the Navy on Antarctica. The runway was carved on the ice shelf. I flew in helicopter blades and other stuff. Flew out with 40,000# of galley slop. The stuff doesn't rot down there.

Tankering has to be one of those under-appreciated everyday heroes 'balls strapped on' acts that most folks don't even think about.

It was scary when a co-pilot would be training on how to do it. We checked out the tankers wingtips many a times. Only had to do one emergency brake away, but it was enough. You tube has some film on how it looks from the flight deck. We had one mid air collision between two C-141's who were flying in formation. The voice recorder still haunts me. When it happened, I was in Germany flying a PNAF mission. PNAF missions transported nukes.
