Aerial refueling, also called in-flight refueling (IFR) or air-to-air refueling (AAR), is the practice of transferring fuel from one aircraft to another during flight.
Some of the earliest experiments in aerial refueling took place in the 1920s, when it was as simple as two slow-flying aircraft flying in formation, with a hose run down from a handheld gas tank on one airplane and placed into the usual fuel filler of the other.
In addition to ferrying aircraft across the Pacific Ocean, Aerial refueling made it possible for damaged fighters to hook up to the tankers and be towed to the point where they could glide to the base and land.

Apart from these, the aerial photographic appearance of the crowns varied so much with differences in age and, further, usually differed so slightly from the appearance in the aerial photograph of the habitue of crowns belonging to other species that it was not reliable enough for species identification.
The importance of aerial photographs is emphasized, for example, by Loetsch (1957a) who says that in a certain case the number of ground plots would have been at least four times as great in the forest had no stratification been made from photographs.
