Josh Bixler flies in an F-16 while the rest of the Flite Test crew ride in a KC-135 air tanker on an air-to-air refueling mission. Josh then gets to feel high-G maneuvers and then pilot the F-16 himself!

Thanks to the 187th Fighter Wing, home of the Red Tails and the 117th Air Refueling Wing for making this video possible.
The Red Tail Legacy will continue for many generations as the 187th has been proudly named as the next home of the F-35 Lightning! To become part of the Red Tails or the Air National Guard: http://bit.ly/AirNtlGuard
