In Flightgear Version 1.9.1, aircraft appear able to successfully be refueled by a KA6D if they have the lines


<systems>

  <refuel>
  <type>probe</type>
  <serviceable type="bool">true</serviceable>
  </refuel>
</systems>
 
somewhere in the aircraft description (after the </sim> tag) and can receive fuel from a KC-135 if in the above 'probe' is replaced by 'boom'. At present, not every aircraft model which could be refueled in 0.9.10 has this (in particular the Lightning doesn't) which can lead to some frustration. Check if the lines appear before blaming your flight abilities, and if necessary add them to the file (aircraftname)-set.xml.
