This method certainly must work, in theory anyway. You have two situations (equations), with 2 unknowns in common. The more I look at diagram 3, the more I am reminded about the formula derivation of the 3-bearing method. It looks very similar, though is from a completely different setup. (see my 1st message in Nisgeis equal-bearing interval thread) Maybe the style of that derivation can help further with yours.

Whether you have enough time to establish 2 collision courses before the actual merge in praxis is something I am not sure of. Also, if you lag too much behind for stage 2, then your topspeed may not be adequate enough to keep up with the constant bearing required speed.

Damn, too many methods, not enough braincells that are fit to divide them over.
