Buddy tanking from a Bucc :)
 
Some further info for those of us that do not know yet about this magnificent addon:
This is a addon for an addon :)
More precisely, this is an payware extension pack for the payware addon called "Airshow Assistant", specifically aimed at the aerial refuelling system. The pack contains additional types of tankers with multiple repaints for each of them.

AirshowAssistant, in its payware variant, offers a functionality to simulate realistically aerial refuelling. You can make a tanker of your choice appear in the air and fly in front of you, then you can try to connect your plane to it to refuel. Note that the physical connection to the tanker is really simulated, also visually: you really catch the basket and you see it attached to your probe, or the extending boom really orientates, extends/retracts, and inserts in your refuelling door. It's not like in FSX/VRS where you just pretend to be close enough to refuel. It's more like DCS, but you get three levels of difficulty, from beginner (tanker will translate to connect magically when you're close enough) to ace (tanker won't move, you have to catch the basket and keep it connected all by yourself).

For me it's the best addon I have purchased for MSFS yet.
 
Same, for that price, it's more than worth it. Has added a whole new level of fun for me to the sim. Breaking the hose off of the refueler and having it dangling from the probe of the F-35 back along the fuselage was the "wow" moment for me. And they just keep making it better. Not to mention the formation and effects capabilities. Good stuff.
