Coming back. Buffs can’t even take off at full fuel load. They have to hit a tanker after becoming airborne.

I wasn't even thinking of fuel load. My experience is mostly with A-7's, and they don't have anything like that kind of combat radius.

Also, on a Corsair II, losing an engine is always a big deal.
