Abstract

724,092. Refuelling aircraft. BOEING AIRPLANE CO. July 16, 1951, No. 16868/51. Drawings to Specification. Class 4. In an aircraft flight refuelling system, the fuel pipe is suspended from the tanker aircraft in a tail boom which is carried by a universal joint fixed to the underside of the tanker. The boom is positioned by rudder and elevator surfaces adjusted manually by an observer in the tanker tail. Extension or contraction of the boom is effected either hydraulically using the fuel pressure ormechanically by a motor. Specification 682,375 is referred to. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 682,375.
