Just flying a mission where gauge shows zero fuel in rear tank…

 

Gauge is correct - if I flick the selector to rear only, the engine cuts…

 

BUT, going back to the ME, I’ve set the aircraft up with a 300L drop tank and fuel load shows as 625kg - which should be front, rear and drop all brim full, and of course, the drop tank pipes through the rear tank.

 

This was right after take off as I wanted to burn off the drop tank fuel first

 

Pump breakers are all in

 

Anything else I might have missed??

No bug… just pilot error

 

with the gauge selector largely hidden by the upper dash, I had moved the selector to the mid position, not to hintern.  Equally had pulled the fuel selector lever all the way down to Zu, starving the engine and seemingly “confirming” the “empty rear tank” gauge reading…

 

ah well, every day is a school day
