21 APR 2003- Video filmed during aerial refuel of U.S. Marine Corps CH-53E Super Stallion by KC-130 over the South China Sea. Refuel hose and drogue part company from the KC-130, narrowly missing the rotor arc of the CH-53 and spraying aircraft with fuel. Glad I wasn't smoking..

That's crazy..I hear those monsters flying pairs over my house everyday..That midair refueling seems kind of dumb in those 53's being that those lines get snapped so much.
LoL This is wierd I was on J hook and My 53 did the same thing on close to the same date. You with 466? I swear I know who you are..
In case it wasn't obvious, the view is from the -53 looking forward through the cockpit. The KC-130's refueling hose is plainly visible. Except when it disappears....
