Indian Ocean (Apr. 20, 2004) - An SH-60F Seahawk pilot assigned to the
"Chargers" of Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron Fourteen (HS-14)
watches his Landing Signalman Enlisted (LSE) while performing a "hot
fuel" aboard USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63). Hot fueling is the refueling of a
helicopter or aircraft while its engine is still turning. Currently
under way in the 7th Fleet area of responsibility (AOR), Kitty Hawk is
the U.S. Navy's oldest active aircraft carrier, and one of the first
modern "super carriers" commissioned in 1961. U.S. Navy photo by
