A C-130J Hercules flown by Number 24 Squadron recently took part in an aerial-refuelling training sortie off of the North-East coast of England.
The sortie gave three pilots and an instructor the chance to maintain essential currencies that will allow them to complete aerial-refuelling on future taskings in support of the Royal Air Force.
Once the crew brought the Hercules up to 20,000 feet, they then rendezvoused with a Voyager, flown by 10/101 Squadron, and conducted a number of refuelling serials.
This included live refuelling along with dry contacts. They also conducted fuelling while banking behind the Voyager.
The aircraft spent six hours in the air, with multiple serials completed by the crews before both aircraft returned back to RAF Brize Norton, home of both the Hercules and Voyager force. This was all captured by two Joint Air Delivery Test and Evaluation Unit photographers.
