One more tip that I feel is important to stress for this particular PITA plane to tank with: Make your approach to the basket VERY slowly!! Maybe +1 or 2 knots over the tanker's speed. If you just slowly ease into it, I believe that it becomes so much easier to check those allignments with the prop arc and the hose and keep things where they're supposed to be. This technique is just as applicable to any plane with a probe plugging into a basket but more so with this damned Harrier!
