Im trying to calibrate fuel flow indicators but have no reference information. The gauges are marked PPH x 1000 and are calibrated at 0.5 - 1 - 2- 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 8 - 10- 12.

I need need to know where those points should be when N1 reaches 10- 20 - 30 - 40 - 50 - 60 - 70 - 80 - 90 - 100 - 110

Regards,

Hi,

why don't you directly read out the fuel flow from FSUIPC ?

"08A0 2 Engine 1 Fuel Flow PPH SSL (pounds per hour, standardised to sea level). Don‘t know units, but it seems to match some gauges if divided by 128. Not maintained in all cases"

And why wouldn't you just try to read what you instruments on the monitor read at the respective N1 values ? Then you get the the FF values that your plane in the sim uses.

Florian
