Hi,
I found this interesting article about air refueling.
http://www.centennialofflight.gov/essay ... Tech22.htm
It seems that it dates back back to the 1920's but that it wasn't used in WWII...Too bad Sturmovik doesn't feature WWI planes, so we would have really dangerous refueling with dangling hoses...
The strategy during WWI was to have large internal fuel capacity for long-range bombers, so that says it all..
Still, if we could refuel our jets in Sturmovik, that would be cool (though non realistic)
