Juuba Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 (edited) Dunno if this is a known issue or not, I tried searching, but didn't find similar issues: Yesterday in a multiplayer session, I had jettisoned my external fuel tank in flight. Then I landed and rearmed (the same setup as initially). After take-off I noticed in the IFEI that my fuel was getting depleted from Internal, and after checking the FUEL page in the DDI, the Center External Fuel tank was not feeding any fuel. I got it to feed from the Center External Tank using the ORIDE (Override) setting in the external fuel tank panel in the left console, aft of the throttles. EXT TANKS - CTR to ORIDE position.

DJ 9mm Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 Did you happen to also see a warning on the DDI saying TK PRES LO? I saw that today. I took off from the carrier in TTI with no weapons or ext tanks. When I realized this I landed on the carrier and rearmed. After I took off, I saw the TK PRES LO warning and noticed the fuel was not draining from the ext tank.
Juuba Posted August 6, 2018 Author Posted August 6, 2018 Sorry I missed your reply. No I don't recall seeing any alarms/warnings or other indications of problems. Sometimes I Amaze even Myself!
