The standard PNR calculation will do it, you just need to adjust the GS to counteract the GS os the aircraft carrier ( not very practicle as the carrier might be tracking an oblique heading ).

The easiest way is to PLOT it is using a PLE chart, once you set up the PLE chart, you pretty much plot FOB V's NM to base, once your plot hits the PLE line go home, also really usefull for airwork such as prawn spotting or coastwatch.

Shoot me a PM and i'll send you a PLE chart.

Cheers
