AIRBORNE TRAFFIC JAM - US Navy EA-18G Aerial Tanking Cockpit View off a AUS A330 MRTT - Unedited

Welcome to an EA-18G Growler cockpit view ride-along of aerial refueling off a Australian A 330 Multi Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) somewhere over Kuwait. This was one of my four trips to the tanker over a 7+ hour sortie.

At the beginning of the video, I arrive in trail of the tanker that has two chicks (F/A-18Es) in tow. The tanker directs me to port observation, where I wait for one F/A-18E to finish getting gas, then I am cleared to the right hose, while another E gets gas off the tanker's left hose.

As you can see, it was a little choppy. Time for some of that pilot crap. I make it happen and get some serious AMEX points! If you have credit, it's time to go get it.

Fly Navy!
