Hi Crew:
I have sort of a question/problem of sort. Like most of us who fly, I have a ton of Ad-on aircraft Pay and freeware. But right now I am talking about some of the freeware that I fly.
Now that I can see my fuel used on any given flight immediately just before I submit the pirep, I am noticing some of my aircraft will Not have burned much fuel on extremely long flights. See my ACARS data below:
Mach 0.88
Ground Speed 515 knots
Altitude FL 420
Heading 164??
Total Flight Time: 471 minutes / 7.9 hours
Fuel Remaining: Fuel Rem 230,244 Lb / 77%
Data by MYActive AirSource
Origination EGLL Heathrow
Destination RJAA New Tokyo Intl (Narita)
Aircraft Type Meljet B772er JAL
Temp @ Acft 0??F/-18??C
Total Distance 5,174 NM
Dist Remaining 1,212 NM
********
I can't see how I can have that much fuel on board at this point in my flight. When I did land, total FOB 63%.
My question, Is there a way that I can correct the flight fuel usage in the aircraft.cfg. file. Or is there another file that has to be changed? I have some experience working in flight sim aircraft files. But don't know where to start for this problem. I see all sorts of Fuel Data inside the cfg. file. I found I have a number of aircraft with this problem.
Any help on this would be great
Thanks
