The in-flight refueling of a squadron of aircraft by a tanker by means of the same refueling hose requires the formation of a queue and the determination of the number of passes, one or possibly two, by each aircraft to the refueling hose, which constitutes a refueling sequence. Although the order in the queue is simple to establish, since it often corresponds to a classification by decreasing quantities of fuel demanded, the same does not apply to the number of passes to the refueling hose, which must be minimized while still respecting the endurances of the aircraft to be refueled before their actual refueling starts. The method described, which may be implemented by a computer, automates the search for a refueling sequence that satisfies the endurance requirements of the various aircraft to be refueled, while still having the minimum number of passes to the refueling hose by the aircraft in the squadron.
