I have read before that flying those tankers is both difficult, and dangerous. The air intakes for the engines are constantly pulling dirty air and the updrafts are strong in the areas you work.

It takes a certain crew I would think...one a bit braver than most of us could wrap our heads around.

RIP my brothers.

The VLAT boys sure are a big help for us at times.

The crew of Bomber 134 was fighting to save the lives and property of others when they went down. That's an honorable epitaph.

Sad day for the 130 community. Brings back memories of MAFFS 7. Rest easy brothers.
