Level D Posky panel merge

<< < (2/2)

EHM-1570 Bruce:
I have just flown LSZH to LPPT in the 752 using the Level D Panel as suggested. Towards the end of the flight I got a fuel configuration warning. When looking at the fuel contents, the starboard wing tank was several thousand pounds down on the port tank (all the fuel pumps were on, so it was not due to a pump being turned off), I had to turn on the crossfeed pumps in order to balance the tanks. The initial fuel load was , wing tanks at 98% and the centre tank with 20000lbs, landed with 17600lbs on board. The normal fuel configuration is to have the wing tanks full and any additional fuel in the centre tank, however as things are at the moment it may be better to have the centre tank with the majority of the fuel, and any additional fuel in the wing tanks.

EHM-1343 Jonathan:
hmmm...Same happened to me....will try your new config suggestion next time!

EHM-1570 Bruce:
I have found the problem with the fuel issue regarding the Fuel Config warning, the amended aircraft.cfg file has a couple of errors in it. To overcome the problem you have to edit the file as follows, open the cfg file and scroll down to the [fuel] section and edit the last 2 lines to read :number_ of_ tank_selectors = 2, and electric_pump = 1, I have checked this out and both the wing tanks feed the engines correctly and the fuel flow from both tanks are the same.
