Thanks for this! I saw the video and posted, but there was no background. Interesting interview.

 

Or KC 97s. I've got many hours sitting behind the boom op.

I guess I'm older than I thought.

 

Rob- Me too. Missed out on my one chance at a KC-97 refueling when we had a compressor stall during climb-out. Recovered automatically, but rules were you RTB when that happened. We had to use flaps and one engine in burner to fly slowly enough to refuel with a KC-97, and they often had to toboggan. KB-50s were before my time.

Pretty cool vid of flying stuff. A little long at 5 min. but the end shot is pretty amazing.

 

A nice little IFR flight in the -60. I always love being VFR on top, though my version of "on top" is <FL10, lol.
