starting job from blueprint in fleet hangar

I've recently returned to Eve after being gone for nearly two years, and have been playing with some of the changes. One welcome change is my Mastadon (T2 transport) now has a fleet hangar. I have found that if I put blueprints in this hangar the industry system looks like it will let me start jobs with them, if the ship is in a station with appropriate facilities. This is potentially convenient because I can't start jobs from blueprints in the cargo bay without moving them to a corp or item hangar first, but with bluprints in my fleet hangar I can potentially skip a step.

My question is, what happens when it comes time to deliver a job I have started from the fleet hangar? What if the ship isn't at the station? Will the job simply refuse to complete, will the job products be lost, or be delivered to a corp or item hangar? Or maybe some other result? If the ship I originally used IS at the station, will the job products be delivered to its fleet hangar?

It seems my lazy attempt to get free information on this topic has failed. I'll do some testing and post answers to my own questions shortly.

Well, it seems the answer is pretty simple, and I have just been a dumbass in public. The industry system will let you open the interface with a blueprint in the fleet hangar, and will let you select a job type, and quote you a cost and time. But when you click start, you get an error message: "cannot use this blueprint from its current location".

Right, you can't manufacture from the corp hangar of any ship, the blueprint has to be inside the manufacturing facility, either an assembly array at a POS or a station.
