AMX pilot must have been suspended or grounded after this incident.
I agree on the fact that he didn't cut the throttle slighty off after joining the drogue; in my opinion the refueling tube was already damaged or weak and so didn't withstand properly the stress. :-/

Perhaps the pilot was nervous due to low fuel!...now he's got low fuel, damage to the tanker and a heap more paperwork.
Actually there doesn't seem to be much turbulence in the air... checking the video again I suspect that the cable failure was not caused by the AMX movements, probably the cable was already damaged.
Forti anche i commenti :D
..eh eh!!! ;-)
