hi Stuart,
after a few runs behind ai tankers, and some crashs in the sky, i think
the a4f need to have at least the drogue and hose not "hot".
here's a diff :
--- a/Models/Geometry/A4-F/a4-f-tanker.xml
+++ b/Models/Geometry/A4-F/a4-f-tanker.xml

the radius definitely need the offsets , i was unable to make contact in
the usual position with a short radius :)
when you're in tanker.nas , I think that in turns, the tanker don't have
a rotation correct respect to the bank angle, when you follow you don't
have the same bank angle and it's a bit strange. here i got a much
better behaviour with this patch:
