Break turns are one thing, but actually holding stable on the boom is something entirely different.
We will make an ops-note in your honor to be sure that our tankers go out of their way in the future to find you and your flawless bretheren THE ONLY French tanker.
With "all due" respect,
your friendly neighborhood tanker
FWIW, I fly AFSOC aircraft for 11 years. Refueled so many times I can/could do it in my sleep...with you guys blacked out..us having to toboggan....OVER GW, etc...and I don't recall remembering the force as a bunch of crap pilots who can't hold their altitude.
Either this Jeff guy is a posuer or he is the reason people make fun of Light Grey guys..most are good dudes...and then there's Jeff.
