cannot reproduce F-15C - fuel in drop tanks drains quickly

[kontiuka]

Scenario:
- carrying drop tanks
- apply power to the engines then put the engines back to idle

Result:
- fuel in drop tanks drains as if engines are in afterburner

I just tested this, and it seems to be working fine for me, please recheck and report back, thanks.

Hi.  It is still doing it for me.  Did you test with just a centre line fuel tank?  Go to afterburner and then go back to idle?

Yeah, it slowed when I dropped it back. Can you send me a track?

I think the issue is with some of the legacy missions.  The track I included in my original post was from the Nevada instant action take-off mission.  When I create a brand new mission, I don't see the bug.  Also, if I do a rearm / refuel in the Nevada instant action take-off mission, the problem disappears.  So, this bug might be lurking in older missions and campaigns.
