Title: Fuel Usage (Flight Logger)
Post by: EHM-1627 Chris on May 11, 2005, 02:58:58 pm

just done my first flight using the flight logger, and this is the PIREP that got sent http://www.euroharmony.com/site/manu/flightstats2.php?id=2020&full=1 The problem with it is that the fuel is a minus number...i thought this very special.  when i looked at the Acars, i found that when the engine started there was no fuel, and then at takeoff there was some fuel.  is this because i started the flight logger to early, or is it something else that i have done wrong!!

thanks for any help

Chris, this can some times happen if you start or park near the refueling station at an airport, especially at the end. Otherwise, not sure why that has happened???
