Here we are walking through the cargo area (and yes, that's a truck with a trailer attached just chilling in the belly of the plane).

Another shot of the truck parked in the cargo area.

Now in the cockpit, you can see the KC-10 flying just overhead and in front of us ready to hook up to refuel our plane.

It's surreal knowing that you've got 2 aircraft flying so close together when you're over the ocean.

Looking out the cockpit window as the KC-10 fuel operator guides the refueling pipe towards us.
