Making my escape

Thanks to this forum, I'm now managing to get lined up and rack up some kills using TM and 100% realism. Unfortunately, I am still getting nailed by the escorts almost every time.

Here's my (failing) escape plan:

1. Immediately after firing off my torpedos dive as deep as possible (below the thermocline if possible)
2. Turn to present the narrowest facing to possible to escorts (or the closest escort if multiple)
3. Try and crawl away at minimum speed while running silent

I survive the first escort passs, but seem unable to shake them. what should I be doing after that first pass? Sitting still? Running slow and silent? gunning the engie to escape? Changing heading and or depth?

All advice appreciated. Help me make it home!
