Hi Curt,
Yup, if you are in a AAR-capable aircraft, click on AI->AITanker. Click Request in the window displayed, and a tanker will be instantiated nearby. The "controller" will tell you where it is relative to your current position. Hope it still works! I haven't tested it for several years.

You can turn the carrier into wind for launch or recovery by using the menu item AI ->AI Carrier Options or which will turn the carrier until the relative wind is either axial or down the angle. Alternatively, in the property browser you can set ai-control = false and then set tgt-heading-degs to whatever you want. Setting ai-control back to true will cause the carrier to head back into its patrol area, and once there to resume its patrol. Hi Vivian, Is there an easy / automated way to put a refueling tanker over the Vinson so I could go up and top off if I wanted to?
