F-16s burn up runway with hot pits

U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Jacob Stiffler, 20th Component Maintenance Squadron aerospace propulsion journeyman, left, and Senior Airman Alexis Rognholt, 20th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron tactical aircraft maintainer, high-five after refueling an F-16CM Fighting Falcon during “hot pits” at Shaw Air Force Base, S.C., Jan. 3, 2018. Hot pits allow pilots to perform more training missions than during a normal duty day by minimizing the time between refueling and requires fewer briefs and debriefs.
