Years of developing mid-air refueling platforms, no real world used for flying further than the maximum range of your aircraft!!

Wanted to fly further anyway just for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called DROP TANKS!!

“Yes please give me 2000 pounds of fuel as I fly at over 21000 feet at 300 knots” - Statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged

Look at what logicians have been demanding your respect for all this time, with the KC-135s and buddy tankers we built for them!

“Hello I would like to fly ∞ miles”

They have played us for absolute fools

(This shitpost was brought to you by the mental breakdown of me trying to mid-air refuel in games like VTOL VR. Have a wonderful day.)
