Boeing successfully refueled a KC-46 Pegasus tanker from a fellow tanker — mid-air.
Boeing transferred 146,000 pounds of fuel from one plane to another after taking off from Boeing Field, near Seattle.
Here's a video of the mid-air fuel transfer. The fuel was off-loaded at a rate of 1,200 gallons per minute.
