In simultaneous refueling, what action indicates the start of fuel flow?

Receivers make contact and push drogue 5 feet to start fuel flow

Fuel flow starts when the receiving aircraft physically engages the drogue. When the receivers make contact with the drogue and push it forward about five feet to confirm a secure connection, the tanker’s refueling valve opens and fuel begins to flow. This ensures fuel transfer only occurs after a proper coupling is established. Merely calling for fuel, waiting for a countdown, or having the drogue fully extended does not by itself start flow.
