A method and apparatus comprising a refueling controller (426). The refueling controller (426) is configured to receive a number of operator commands (424) for moving a refueling boom (412) on a tanker aircraft (408) in a desired direction. The number of operator commands (424) defines at least one of an azimuth movement (476) and an elevation movement (478) of the refueling boom (412) during flight of the tanker aircraft (408). The refueling controller (426) is further configured to generate a number of intermediate commands (458) for moving the refueling boom (412) in the desired direction as defined by the number of operator commands (424). The number of intermediate commands (458) defines at least one of a roll movement (480) and a pitch movement (482) such that the refueling boom (412) moves in the desired direction.
