LOCKHEED MARTIN KC-130 TANKER GV-1 AIR REFUELING PROCEDURES F-8 CRUSADER 63404

Aircraft Familiarization GV-1: Air Refueling Procedures (MN 8999) is a short U.S. Navy training film on the in-air refueling operations of the GV-1 (a Lockheed Martin KC-130 Tanker). The film opens with a shot of the GV-1 flying (00:40), its refueling hose extended out behind it to a receiving aircraft—what appears to be a Vought F-8 Crusader. Graphics are used to show the layout of the GV-1 and where fuel is stored (01:27). Two fighter jets trail the GV-1 and refuel in air (01:38). Two members of the GV-1 crew work around the fuselage tank in the middle of the cargo area (01:44). The film shows viewers the aircraft’s fuel pumps, aerial refueling manifolds, and refueling hoses. A diagram shows how fuel is transferred from the fuel tanks on the GV-1 to the refueling hoses. The film shows the refueling pod on the wings of a grounded GV-1 (03:07). The aircraft’s drogue is lowered out from the stowed position with its hose and coupling; a close-up shot reveals the three locking systems on the hose and coupling (04:11). The film then reviews the signal lights on the pod that relay various messages to the receiving plane. A diagram shows the location of the aerial refueling pods located in the wings of the GV-1 (05:00). Next, viewers see the air refueling control panel in the GV-1 (05:22); the film covers the steps to take to prepare for refueling operations with close-up shots of the control panel. A drogue leaves the pod during flight and begins to extend behind the GV-1 (07:29). A jet approaches the refueling tanker; it nears the drogue pod (08:25) and engages the drogue. Footage shows the tanker and receiving jet flying in the sky during the refueling operation. The jet moves out of refueling range after refueling (10:15). A Douglas A-4 Skyhawk (A4D) maneuvers behind the GV-1 for a refueling operation (10:53). Two members of the GV-1 crew observe the operation from the paratroop doors (11:18). The drogue is disengaged from the receiving jet (11:57); another shot shows the receiving plane disengaging from the hose and drogue. The refueling hose and drogue is reeled in (13:14) and stored away in the refueling pod. The film then shows the control panel and reviews what to do once the hose and drogue are stored away to complete refueling operations. A GV-1 lands at its base with its refueling hoses dragging behind it (15:14) due to a malfunction with reeling the hoses back into storage position. Graphics show how the refueling pod’s guillotine can be used to cut and jettison a stuck fuel hose, as well as how to jettison fuel if necessary. The film provides an overview of what steps to take on the control panel to accomplish both tasks. There are more shots of the aircraft’s control panel, and then the film ends with footage of the GV-1 refueling fighter jets. The Lockheed Martin KC-130 tankers, originally C-130F procured for the US Marine Corps (USMC) in 1958 (under the designation GV-1) are equipped with a removable 3,600 US gal (13,626 L) stainless steel fuel tank carried inside the cargo compartment. The two wing-mounted hose and drogue aerial refueling pods each transfer up to 300 US gal per minute (19 L per second) to two aircraft simultaneously, allowing for rapid cycle times of multiple-receiver aircraft formations, (a typical tanker formation of four aircraft in less than 30 minutes). The US Navy's C-130G has increased structural strength allowing higher gross weight operation.
