    A nighttime ground crew operation showing two personnel working beneath a large military aircraft, likely performing fueling or maintenance tasks. The scene is illuminated by artificial lighting that highlights the aircraft's undercarriage, landing gear assembly, and the workers in high-visibility safety gear. The dark environment and focused lighting create a high-contrast image typical of nighttime flight line operations.

    Crew chiefs assigned to the 9th Expeditionary Bomb Squadron attach a fuel hose to a B-1B Lancer as part of a hot-pit refuelling mission at Ørland Air Force Station, Norway, March 12, 2021. During a hot-pit, an aircraft is refuelled shortly after landing without shutting down the engines or auxiliary systems, reducing the amount of time the jet spends on the ground.
