The most fun you can have with your trousers on.
First flight is solo. . .always a thrill.
A/A refueling. . you drive up so close that the boom is only a few feet away from your beak, stabilize and wait for the boomer to stick you. Funny, one time I forgot to open the refueling door and drove up and parked and waited for the boomer to 'poke' me. . .after a few moments, the boomer, great guy from the Guard, took the boom and gently tapped the refueling door as a hint to open it.
HAHAHAHA...I Love IT !
Cool story! Understandable I suppose as you were probably busy........looking for targets to SHOOT!
