about fuel

Post by ali jaani »

hi guys,

i have a question about refuelling

i just completed the training flight with the f27 from EGSH to EGJJ.
i departed with 1200kgs of fuel and arrived with 347kgs of fuel at the parking.

then when opened the aircraft-info page (G-STAN), it shows that there is now 1048kgs of fuel on board...

is this some automatic refuelling going on or am i doing something wrong?

thanks

ali

i think i've found the answer myself already, as below the flight report is written "Training Flight: Flight didn't have any consequences for the airline"
so that may be the reason i assume...

Hi Ali..

Yes mate.. that's the reason. Consider training flights as 'live' time in the company simulator. Whatever state the aircraft was at or what ever fuel was onboard before you began will reset to that level at the end of a flight. This only occurs when the flight is a training flight ;)
