If the IFR probe won't retract, what's the usual reason, and what other
effects will that failure have on other systems, specifically those
associated with landing. Got asked that on another forum. Relates to a
segment in this video:

I have no experience with the F-14, but I'd wager with the probe extended
any external fuel would not transfer. On similar aircraft fuel is forced
out by engine bleed air, the tanks must obviously be unpressurized during
refueling.



Ignore the fact that the moron poster mistook this for AF stuff.


He identifies it as U. S. Navy.
