A U.S. Air Force flight engineer monitors the evening light in preparation for the nighttime tilt-rotor air-to-air refueling of a 352d Special Operations Wing CV-22B Osprey, U.K., Aug. 2, 2022. The aircraft’s tilt-rotor design allows it to take off and land vertically, but the rotors must be tilted to fly as a plane for refueling to take place — requiring precision flying and communication to dock with the drogue of the refueling aircraft at night.
