Study Notes

Fueling Operations

Integrated Combat Turnarounds (ICTs), formerly Concurrent Servicing Operations (CSOs), are authorized for specific aircraft (A-10, F-15, F-16, F-22, F-35).
ICTs are a process for rapid aircraft recovery and relaunch, including simultaneous fueling, munitions loading/unloading, reconfiguration, inspections, and other servicing.
ICTs increase risk compared to non-integrated procedures.
Oxygen servicing is prohibited during ICTs.
An Aircraft Turnaround Supervisor (ATS) is required at each ICT location.
Simultaneous fuel and electrical (power-on) inspections are not allowed during ICTs.

Integrated Combat Turnarounds (ICTs)

ICTs are performed with all aircraft engines shut down.
ICTs can be done on a single aircraft, or two aircraft may undergo ICTs in shelters (1 at a time).
"Hot ICT" entails operations using operational engines. Hot ICTs are authorized for combat, training, and evaluations.
The ATS, a highly qualified maintenance technician (SSgt minimum grade), is responsible for all aspects of the ICT, from briefing to supervision to reporting incidents and safety concerns.
ATS must be present throughout the entire ICT, and has full authority over all safety aspects, but not firefighting and rescue units.

Hot Refueling

Hot refueling involves transferring fuel to an aircraft with running engines from a non-aircraft source.
Personnel must be thoroughly familiar with equipment, safety procedures, and sequential steps, with annual certification.
Minimum crew requirements are outlined in specific aircraft technical orders. Additional supervision may be required for multiple-aircraft operations.
Hot refueling is not recommended without SSEA validation of aircraft, fueling systems, and facility.

Aircraft-to-Aircraft Refueling

Aircraft-to-aircraft refueling is performed with (or without) engines running for combat training and operations and allows for fueling in tactical areas.
Fuel is supplied by internal fuel tanks using ground power units, aircraft power units or functioning aircraft engines.
Fuel dispensing between aircraft, with or without engines running, is subject to detailed safety regulations and requires certified personnel thoroughly familiar with fueling systems and procedures.
This operation requires an SSEA validation.

Aerial Bulk Fuel Delivery System (ABFDS) with Alternate Capability Equipment (ACE)

ABFDS with ACE systems can fuel directly from cargo aircraft with or without running engines.
This operation is restricted to diesel-powered systems avoiding gasoline fuel sources to avoid ignition hazards.
Fuel servicing crew includes technicians and aircrews; qualified personnel (2F0X1) are required from both the tanker and delivery aircraft.
Personnel and equipment need to undergo an SSEA validation for safety.

Wet Wing Defueling

Wet wing defueling (rapid defueling) transfers fuel from a running aircraft to approved equipment.
Operations require a previously performed SSEA of aircraft and equipment to ensure safety standards.
Certified crew members are required to perform operations.
Wet wing defueling allows for higher flow rates compared to standard defueling. This is accomplished using on board fuel transfer pumps and one outboard engine or external hydraulic power cart.

Forward Area Refueling Point (FARP) Operations

FARP operations involve transferring fuel from a tanker aircraft to one or more receiver aircraft, potentially with running engines on both.
Ground refueling equipment, like hoses and a Forward Area Manifold (FAM) cart, is typically deployed.
Personnel must be qualified to operate equipment, maintain intercom contact with tanker aircraft, and ensure safety protocols are met. A SSEA is required to confirm aircraft approval for FARP. Specific aircraft and equipment are listed and must be certified.

Emergency Procedures

In case of fire or fuel leaks during fueling, immediate steps include stopping fuel flow, engine shutdowns, notification of the fire department and evacuation.
Fire guards must be prepared with extinguishers during fuel leaks, and fire crews must have access. Aircraft must be evacuated.
