In the past it was possible to refuel any aircraft from any tanker.
That's no longer the case! Tankers do now have to declare which
system they offer. They do that by setting

  /ai/models/tanker[*]/refuel/system[*] to "boom" or "probe"

A tanker can set both, but none of our current tankers does.
Both KC135 offer "boom", and the KA6D offers "probe".


Aircraft have to declare from which system they can receive
by setting
  
  <systems>
      <refuel>
          <system>boom</system>
          <!-- <system>probe</system> -->
      </refuel>
  </systems>

An aircraft may set both. The system names aren't hard-coded.
One can just use a new method name in tanker and receiver
without having to register it anywhere first.


There's no fool-proof fallback method. If an aircraft doesn't
say what it wants, then it gets no fuel. Period.  :-P
At the moment only the ufo ("boom" & "probe") and the a4f
("probe" only!) can get refueled. So, please, add the
necessary declaration to your aircraft.
