.and as a 'hat tip' to the tanker crews, I can recall several occasions when we had just plugged in for fuel and another raid was called. The tanker, unbidden, turned to fly the initial heading for the intercept whilst we remained plugged in. Having gulped an important bit extra, we unplugged and continued the intercept, letting him run away bravely back to the towline before the enemy got too close..
(worked out their own geometry too on bullseye calls; impressive!)
