Hot pits

Airman 1st Class David Brittain attaches a cable to an F-15 Eagle which allows the pilot to have direct communication with the crew chiefs during "hot pits" Oct. 18 at Royal Air Force Lakenheath, England. A hot pit is where a jet leaves one engine running while refueling to attain the fastest recovery time possible. (U.S. Air Force photo/Airman Erika Brooke)
