Hi Enrico,
somethink in GC-Boeing refill all Tanks if RightMain- or LeftMain-Tank is
empty, Center is not empty.
The Tanks will refill with 7950 Center, 1380 Left and 1380 Right (lbs). It
is not imporant the range of tank.
If the CenterTank is 7430 MAX Volume in Airkraft.CFG, GC-Boeing will refil
it with 7950 lbs (107 %).
I have also pmRJ and I changed to pmRJ (PFD/ND/EICAS), all is OK Enginesw
kill if empty.
Is in GC-Boeing a Option I didn`t found ??

Hi,

I am not aware of any such option, like the Glass Cockpit filling in fuel...

absolutely not. This is a mystery to me.

Can you give me exact steps of how to get this? Also, is the CDU running at

that point?

Ciao

Enrico

Hi Enrico,
- Boeing-GC
- plane with 3 Tanks (Center,Left,Right)
- fill up Center anything 500 or do
- fill up Left and Right with 5 lbs, so you don`t have to wait long time
- full Power to burn the gas, also on the ground.
- if the left or right Tank is empty, all tanks will refill up to (center
7950 lbs, left 1377 lbs, right 1377 lbs)
- it Not gepends of the aircraft

If I do the same with pmRJ no refill. If all Tanks are empty the engines
will stop.

Thomas,

i don't know about the specific problem,

but in real world the center tank is empty and the left and right have
fuel,
not the oposite.

To fill the center tank with fuel you have first full the wing tanks and of
course you first burn the center tank's fuel.
Try this to see any difference


Eddie

Hi Eddi,
problem is not to fill the tanks or the way to fill.
Problem is to NOT fill the tanks. - I do nothing. The
Boeing PM GlassCockpit software fills the tanks up
to discribed volume by it self, if a Wingtank is empty.

If PM-GCis NOT running I have to refill manual - that`s correct !

Hi,

thanks for helping me find that... it was a feature for the standalone
version and there was an error in the handling of the version number... will

be fixed in the release version.

Ciao

Enrico
