English term or phrase: narrow window
Bonjour, comment comprenez-vous "narrow window" ici ?

The refuelling operation is particularly difficult and strenuous for the pilot of the receiver aircraft, because the position of the receptacle relative to the tanker aircraft must be maintained within a narrow window for a relatively long period of time.

L'opération de ravitaillement est particulièrement difficile et pénible pour le pilote de l'avion récepteur car la position du réservoir par rapport à l'avion ravitailleur doit être maintenue dans une ouverture de fenêtre étroite, et ce, pendant une période de temps relativement longue.
