Welcome back Smudge. The thread has been a little bare in your absence.
The NVG sequence above is indeed a TALO offload if a little flat in its approach.
As for Argosy Vs Herc interoperability the two systems have separate OCUs. I was on Argosies for 6 years and it was a quantum leap in experience to take off before breakfast, not flag stop in France for lunch and realise that Malta was only half a tank of gas rather than an overnight stop en route. Most ungentlemanly hours. I got to see a lot more of the world though, some of it memorably in your company.
