In more recent times, RAAF Caribou replenishment operations had developed far in advance of the laughably outmoded old days (see Fig 1).

For example, only two men and a tie down strap were required to refuel rather than the nine seen here, and re-oiling could be accomplished by an innovative method known as 'passing drums through the top hatch and crawling out on the wing.'

Three cheers for modern technology!
