NASA looking pleased after a successful space docking... The Apollo missions were quite risky

Nah man! I posted probe-and-drogue aeriel refueling, whereas the KC-135's and B-52's use the boom and receptacle setup.

Also you posted a vid, mine's just a POV pic

some guys like POV for this sort of thing

I like a slow, tender, 3rd person perspective, with maybe a few subjective POV shots to make it feel real

This is my first docking thread. I love all these great docks.

That's racist bud. (jk)

FICON project is pretty cool - futile effort to equip cold war bombers with their own "parasite" fighter escorts

Funny... but watch how quick this thread goes bye bye when one of you immature little shits decides to push it too far...
