Hot refueling hazards.
Hot refueling in the special operations community has several potential hazards which can accompany the operation. The MC-130 Panel Operator's (PO) position is located in the exhaust of the number 3 engine, subjecting him to fumes, heat, and exhaust blast. The hypothesis was that time constraints should be implemented to the work load due to heat and carbon monoxide exposure. The hypothesis was confirmed for heat exposure but not for significant carbon monoxide exposure.
