The F-100 was harder because the refueling probe was in the right wing root and so you aligned with the tanker, a little left of centerline and just drove it in until you either made contact or overran the basket, in which case you'd back out a little and do it again. The A-10 was a piece of cake as the receptacle was in the nose, directly forward to the windshield.
